I even put mine on just going down the driveway to get the mail, Although it is over a 1/4 mile long it is still a driveway.

comfort thing for me too I guess.

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.
Well, if it happens again, make sure to get hit the same way as those last 3 times, because  sooner or later the odds will catch up with you, and all those people will be saying "If only he'd had his belt on..."

I mostly wear it, but I'll be honest and say that there have been times when I simply forgot about it. I wore it when it mattered though, otherwise when I had my accident I would've gone through the windshield.

I dont wear mine. Its just a thing of comfort to be able to move freely. Plus around here, especially with the last accident that happened I am scared to wear it. We have farmers going through town all the time and a kid tried to pass and the truck turned in front of him. He would of died with a belt on. I dont know.

Every time. I didn't used to, until my wife (then gf) tore a strip off me whenever I forgot. It started out as a way to avoid the lecture, but now it's 100% of the time.

Here's a good question. How many of you avid seatbelt wearers have gotten into an older vehicle lately that has no seatbelts? Do you feel like your life is in the drivers hands or what? It's like driving in a death trap. You just keep watching that dash, waiting for it to cave your cheast in (you know, the old lead sleds with killer dashes).:D

I have always worn mine.  Thanks to my dad who would never move the car unless we all had our seatbelts on.  It would be easier to put mine on in the Cougar if the plastic seat belt thingy wasn't broken.

Isn't that the truth!


I usually have to dig it out of the seat/console space but I still wear it all the time.
