| Seatbelt Law
I never used to wear a seatbelt till I took engineering physics in college .. (went to college when I was 35) and "saw" the forces involved in an accident.
About 4 months after that, one of my friends driving a corrolla collided with pickup that pulled a U turn in front of him. He was wearing his belt and the forces were so great that the belt cut his skin from shoulder to breast.
He was only going about 35 -40 mph ...
What I learned by that is not you have to wear your seat belt.
What I really learned is that you cannot predict idiots
and you have to do you best to protect yourself from their actions. |
