Seatbelts save lives. I don't think anyone will really dispute that fact. There are rare incidents where the seatbelt might put the wearer in more danger, but those are going to be very few and far between compared to the average auto accident.
If you don't want to wear your seatbelt, that's fine with me. I don't care since you're not going to be in my car. If we're in an accident, and you end up dead, your portion of the contributory negligence is going to be higher than otherwise since you failed to take what is considered a basic step to avoid injury.
It seems to me that there are much more thrilling ways to live dangerously. If this is a way to pick up chicks, I'm going to be severely disapointed.
