clavus,
Can you imagine the injuries and lives saved if DOT approved crash helmets were required for all automobile passengers? I'm not knocking your position on seat belts, just trying to speculate where we are going with these manditory safety requirements.

Most states already require helmets for motorcycles but far more lives would be saved if they were required in cars due to the larger numbers of passengers and accidents. It doesn't seem like much of a stretch to imagine the states requiring them like they do with bikes and motorcycles. After all, not too many years ago people would have laughed at the idea of requiring seat belts.
