It's a must do with me. One of the first things I do when I get in.

Better yet, how many actually take their belt off when the park after hitting the drive thru or whatever. I usually sit with mine on and eat. Don't ask why.

I know I have lost too many friends/family in car accidents due to the fact that they werent wearing their seat belt.  it only takes a second to put it on and less than a second to die if you dont.  I know I dont want to put anyone through the pain of losing me that way.

I've been in a total of 5 accidents, 3 of them everyone that I talked to including the investigating officers, the paramedics and everyone else that seen the 3 cars said that if I had been wearing my seatbelt, I would'nt be here.  So, my truthful answer is that the only time I ever wear my seatbelt is when I'm forced to by the driver.

Its a comfort thing for me. I dont always, but I would say greater the 9/10. Prolly more then that, I dont know. I have never been in a major wreck though either.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I don't fell right without it. Before I was able to drive my brother was in an accident and wasn't wearing his seatbelt, he hit the windshield and was in a coma for 10 days. Therefore I always wear it, and I make my passengers where it also.

I wear mine 99.99%... Never had a major accident since I started(mid '80s??), but totaled a '64 Ford(hit a parked moving van at 55 mph) and flipped a '69 Dodge van back in the '70s without a scratch.
