I'm naughty and never do, although sometimes I get this weird vibe to wear it, like a strange feeling so I put it on so I do.

Do the adverts on tv make you think twice at all?
[quote]
I always have and always do.
I do it as soon as I sit in the car (and sometimes even if I sit in a car and know I'm not going anywhere I put it on automatically - duh)

The ad's dont do much for me
[quote]
I always wear a seatbelt. Not really because of the ads, more common sense really.
[quote]
Yeah it is total common sense, but I had this real dork boyfriend when I was a little girl and he never wore one and (get this) used to hassle me for putting it on, so I got out of the habit.

Naughty Moo Sad
[quote]
I always wear it. Tried driving down the road once without it, felt really freaky !
[quote]
Very naughty Moo!!!
[quote]
this question sounds like one that would be on an insurance statement! next
[quote]
Very Naughty Moo. I always put my seat belt on, has saved my ass twice from going thru the windscreen. Good drivers do have accidents...

make it click!
[quote]
Good old Ronald eh!
[quote]
its all i know Smile
[quote]
Always....but the ads don't do much for me either.
[quote]
I always have, and always will......

My stepmother had two crashes in a car and never wore her seatbelt...... funny thing is, she believed that if she had worn them she wouldn't have survived as she would've had a tree through her head, and wouldn't have been able to get out of the car the second time.............

To wear or not to wear.
[quote]
my belt is on whenever my car is moving
[quote]
It's automatic for me too. I remember feeling so unsafe when I had to go somewhere by bus and not being able to wear a seat belt.
[quote]
I always wear one whenever I remember to.
[quote]
Hell yeah! Always on before I start the car!
[quote]
Driver gets the fine if you don't wear a seatbelt. Don't think your friends would appreciate paying for your stupidity.
[quote]
HELL YES!
It's automatic, I feel wierd if I don't wear one... but with the way my friends and I drive, it;s definitely a good idea :0)
[quote]
yeah same, i cant not wear a seatbelt. it doesnt feel right.

there were just too many McDonalds Make it Click ads to ignore, i suppose.
[quote]
I always wear a seatbelt in the front or the rear. Oh and crash helmets on motorbikes too. Without them i would`ve been a vegetable ten times over.
[quote]
um....I ride a motorcycle. And even if I'm driving I'm exempt due to various metal parts of my anatomy.

would recommend it though.
[quote]
If you're in the front seat or if you're in the back
Remember to make it click before you hit the track...

Tell all your friends and family that's the trick - make it click! :0)
[quote]
yea..always do. maybe sumtimes id forget it, but thats with ONLY ppl i trust very well behind the wheel.
[quote]
Vadinho....IIRC, the law regarding no seatbelt fines changed, and now if the passengers are over [16-18 I'm not sure] they get the fine, not the driver....but I could be wrong there, it may have been changed the other way round...

Jesus tho Moo, it's not like this is the US, where "its our constitutional right NOT to wear seatbelts!!! god bless america!!!"

That's why airbags are manadory fitment on all US-spec cars, cause nobody wears seatbelts. Of course, now it's more like "its our constitutional right to get our airbags disabled!!!! god bless america!!!" Fuckin yanks

The only time I don't wear a seatbelt is when I'm driving from the petrol station to my house or vice versa, since it's less than 80m away. (When I'm on my way home or out of course, I'm not THAT lazy!)
[quote]
Ha.. Ok. I'll go with the Moo-call and admit that I can be slack for not wearing my seatbelt when I'm driving. I normally remember to put it on at some stage during the journey but sometimes thats alot closer to the destination...

I've had two tickets for not wearing my seatbelt in the last 6 years too... but.. err.. I'm better than I was.
[quote]
first thing i ever do when i get into a diff car is say " where is the seat belt if i cant find it. mates always lol at me all i think is well i might be the one lol at the end of the nite cause i put it on. but have heard stories that if ppl didnt have one on they might have lived.

but hey they are there for a reason and i use um.
[quote]
yes.... wearing a seltbelt is good Smile

and you can even get those funky little covers for the seatbelts, ya know... so they don't rub and give ya a rash Smile
[quote]
I never used to wear a seatbelt at all, but always used to make my gf's wear them.

The only reason I started wearing them is I got pulled over and given lots and lots of tickets for not wearing them

Now that I have another car with dark tinted windows I slack off from wearing them again.
[quote]
maybe if i gave u some fancy printed fur covers... then u'd wear them gedda?
[quote]
I always wear my seatbelt in the front, if I'm slightly drunk or whatever then I tend to be slack in the back. Especially in older cars where you have to have a big mish just to get it all cranking.

And Vader, they change the law on that ages ago, you get the fine personally for no seatbelt. 0/10

Oh and "Whatever Jass, you rolled into a ditch!"

I'd feel too unsafe being without it, even in the back seat I feel fuckin' dodgy as and I torture myself without it :p~ And seeing as I just lost a cousin late last year from her flying out of a car from wearing no seatbelt, it would be disrespectful not to. Better get safer I think.

I miss her Sad
[quote]
i always do, force of habbit really Smile plus with the way i drive i need it to keep me in my seat Razz
[quote]
I always have worn them and it paid off big time last year, had a direct head on crash with another car, and got broken ribs and stuff from the seat belt and ko'd from the sudden stop but its better than being dead!
[quote]
Yep, Rather have a sore body than go through a window or somethin
[quote]
mostly, on the odd occasion i dont in the back of a car, usually cos i cant find it or something...
[quote]
Moo: Dumbass.

I'd be all for 'natural selection' in this area if I didn't realise that I'd have to pay out for your fucking hospital bills through my taxes.

Jesus christ.

The crazy thing is that it doesn't matter how good a driver YOU are, it's how crap everyone else is. Imagine how bummed you'd be when someone crashes into you and you fuck yourself up. I've had three people crash into me in the past four years (all their fault, liability etc), and the most damage I've had has been whiplash all three times. I daresay it would have been a lot worse otherwise.

Sheesh.
[quote]
Never without... the reason me and 4 of my friends are alive after being in a car that rolled at 100kph are becoz those handy little pieces of material and metal...

So.... MAKE IT CLICK!! Smile

bad habits are hard formed

You either have to be mad or plain stupid not to wear a seat belt !
[quote]
I always wear a seat belt !
One day I took mine off to pick up some mail that I had dropped on the floor on the way to work. My b/f crashed into the back of someones car coz they slammed on their breaks and I almost went through the windscreen. I looked up and all I saw was the back end of another car b 4 I hit the screen. It was good actually coz I was just thinking about how I had a splitting headache - I then had a reason to have it. I cracked the windscreen and looked like a freak for a week
[quote]
exodus: Werd. *nods*

I repeat: Dumbasses!
[quote]
I always have and always will, even in a taxi, airplane and would if I could in a bus Smile

And the ad's don't have to explain it to me, it's just pure and simple math.

THE FASTER YOU GO THE BIGGER THE MESS Smile))))))

Moo please wear your belt, I'd hate to see your pretty face with scars Smile
[quote]
I wear one not to protect me from myself but from all the other lunatics out there!!
[quote]
I don't even think abnout it, I just put it on automatically, can't help it. Good habit, I can't undertsand why anyone wouldn't war one, its not like they're uncomfortable.
[quote]
I've worn my seatbelt ALL day today in the car!
