| Seatbelt Law
I wear my seatbelt by choice everytime I get in the car. Personally I don't think it should be a law for adults - sort of.
The problem arises when people are involved in accidents and because they chose not to use readily available and proven safety equipment end up getting injured more severely then if they had used their seatbelt. A large portion of the medical bills for these folks is covered by insurance. Insurance companies need to re-coup losses. They do this by charging higher rates. So, I am paying more money because of a decision someone else made.
Because of this twist I feel it should be a law. Find a way to keep me from having to pay for other peoples decisions and I'll change my position... |
