What I don't understand is: what is the big deal with not wearing your seat belt? It doesn't restrict your movements. It keeps you from breaking your teeth in the steering wheel if you rear-end someone. In a fast corner, it keeps you from sliding out of your seat.
Unless you do it in protest of a regulation you find unnecessary? But there's so many regulations that I find unnecessary. Can't possibly break all of 'em...

We had a 1976 Ford Granada had that "feature" sensors in the seats determined if driver and passenger were seated and belted as appropriate. Since it was a pain and not a law at the time, the parents figured out that if you lifted your butt when starting it would start. thus defeating the start/seat belt feature.
