bad habits turn into bad things

[DsBlu01CivEX]

ironically I didn't read this thread when it was first started....but when you're really bored and not tired...you do crazy things.

After reading through almost all of the posts I have this to say....I wear my seatbelt even if i'm just driving across a parking lot. It's force of habit for me to do so. I get in the car and the first thing I do other than start my car, is put my seatbelt on. If I'm driving my passengers all have theirs on....but if we get in their car and they don't wear seatbelts, then that is their decision, not mine. I'm also not going to judge someone and tell them that they're a fool for not wearing one. I think it's been very well established that wearing your seatbelt is a personal choice that one has to make on their own. There are statistics that will prove what ever point you're trying to make....that's why debates are so much fun. But i'm also not going to have sympathy for the person that gets pulled over and fined for not having their seatbelt on. That's what your personal choice brings to you....sorry about your luck.

I do find it rather stupid though that states have a no helmet law, but you must wear a seatbelt. I still haven't figured that one out yet
