Polls/surveys Do you wear your seatbels faithfully?

Question

I do since the late 80's...I have had 2 cars now a truck and i actually feel naked without my seatbelt securely fastened.. I know its a law everywhere. Funny when my MIL was alive I said we cant go now till your seatbelt is on. I always had to help her do that for her. She wasn't accustomed to doing that but we did before we left her house. Now what is your story on this seatbelt issue.

Answer 1

I like tulips and daffodils and I love my cats and I also like sausage toad and strawberry crumble custard and ice cream - not necessarily all at the same time you understand!

Answer 2

Heck, girl.....I even wear one in the bedroom.

Not anything to do with cars, you understand.

In fact it's more of a silk scarf than a seatbelt, truth be told.

But yes, you're right.........seatbelts in vehicles everytime ;o)

Answer 3

I never put the keys in the ignition until my seat belt is on. Thank goodness I do, I would be dead now without it. Head -on collision . Darn tree jumped right in front of my car going 90 mph! All is fine,car made it, I made it, poor tree didn't make it :(

Answer 4

No story,  but yes I always use them if fitted,  even in coaches/buses.  I also make sure every passenger in my car is wearing theirs.

Answer 5

Faithfully since the summer of 1972 when I was a passenger in my friend's car that was hit by a VW and I was deposited on the road.  Fortunately we were traveling 30 mph.  I wound up with road rash on my hip, arm, and hand.  

Everyone in my car wears their seat belts or we do not move.

Answer 6

yep,but my old hooptie has the power seatbelts in it so I really dont have a choice, it just goes on by itself as soon as I turn the key.Pretty convenient huh.

Answer 7

I ALWAYS wear my seatbelt!

except if i'm on a coach bus....then i cant because they dont have seatbelts..... but if they did i would wear it!

Answer 8

always wear the seatbelt.  but no helmet on the motorcycle.

Answer 9

I used to until I broke my left collar bone.  The seatbelt would hurt me when I was driving and now I wear it sometimes.

Answer 10

yes unless my stomach hurts really bad but that doesn't happen often so yes, faithfully

Answer 11

no but i am trying to

Answer 12

I don't feel comfortable sitting in a car without my seatbelt on.

Answer 13

I am afraid not to and everyone that drives me  wears one too...you never know if there will be an accident one mile away, or 100 miles away.

ALWAYS BUCKLE UP and I do it for me and the ones I love and not for the law

Answer 14

yes, I can't stand that "pinging" sound the car makes if I don't

Answer 15

Yes, all the time, because:-

a. I enjoy life!

b. I would not like to pay the fine. if I was caught without it.

As one of your other answerers stated, you could have a crash one mile away or one hundred (you just do not know what life is going to throw at you).

Answer 16

Yes i do
