You can get pulled just for that alone.

Anyone who doesn't wear one, more power to you. Once you die, your stupidity will no longer make the rest of us suffer.
 
It's just a habit. Get in the car, put the keys in the ignition and click the seat belt.
No reason whatsoever you shouldn't wear one.
 
I always wear mine, because one day I didn't, and when this lady pulled in front of me and I T-boned her.
Face smacked the steering wheel hard, tore my face up pretty badly, and my knees smacked the lower part of the dash, really messing up my lower back!

whoa, at least it wasn't worse.
 
i don't think it should be the law to wear one, but i would not be caught dead without it (pun intended!). nor will i drive if anyone else in the car doesn't have theirs on.

yeah, I never knew an unbuckled passenger can kill the other passengers.

Ditto, it just feels uncomfotable.

yup but for some reason anything rural or small town (in mexico) i don't wear one......


cuz in feudal mexico the seatbelt wears you!!!
 
Always, out of habit. Some of my friends don't and when I get in a car with them and habitually buckle up, they all look at me funny seeing as though none of them bother.
 
the seatbelt wont fit around me and besides the seat is bent over the seatbeltbase and i cant reach my hand over my gut to access it
 
YES!!!

saved my life when i was t-bone by an accord going fast enough to roll me in a honda 2004 minivan 3 times.. walked away without a scratch..
