Saftey belts in cars don't save lives - people do?

Question

they have to put them on?

Answer 1

Yes, you need people to put seat belts on.

And you need people to put safety belts in cars so people can put safety belts on.

Answer 2

I had a chat with my wife the other day about seat belts and we came to the conclusion that if car manufacturers were serious about seat belt they would not allow cars to start if the seat belt was not fastened in any seat were a person was sitting.

Guns on the other had are a completely other issue, guns don't kill people do. When public ownership of fire arms was banned the idea was that gun crime would become a thing of the past. Has it? No, the number of shootings has increased.

Draw your own conclusions from this.

Ja.

Answer 3

people save lives by putting the safety belt on! the safety belt would not save lives if the person did not wear it!

Answer 4

great question

Answer 5

be careful when you think it is a good idea to tie the ignition and seat belt together. Your a young woman walking to your car in the dark, you hear footsteps behind you and getting closer, you make the car shut the door get the key in the ignition for a quick get away and now as the murderer is 10 feet from the car you have to fasten your seat belt to start the car. BANG

Answer 6

There were a few efforts at building cars that either wouldn't start unless the seatbelt was fastened, or tried to have the car put the seat belt on the passengers for them. The cars that wouldn't start without everyone buckled in often had the weight sensors go wrong and the car wouldn't start at all. And about the cars that tried to put the seat belts on the owners, they were real nuisances.

You can't save people from their own stupidity. Then again, it also doesn't make sense for seat belts to be optional equipment like in the early 1960s...

Answer 7

Good point.

But remember, no human is perfect, so we must wear the safety belt.

Answer 8

Seat belts, when used properly, dramatically improve survival in most crash situations.   When considering the increasing average mass of westerners, over crash deceleration time intervals the MOMENTUM (mass x velocity) becomes an large force, and large forces damage humans.  Cars are designed for modest mass ppl, and if ur too big, the car cannot cope with the crash stresses, & it kills you.

seat belts are a good thing, if you aren't too big for them.  After that, nothing but God can save you.

Answer 9

of course seat belts save lives if they arnt there they cant be put on

Answer 10

Safety belts can save lives if people will put them on.  But you know what safety belts can do they can save you some money, the reason is when that cop sitting in the lot of cvs sees your driving without a seat belt he will pull your over so fast your head will spin and then you'll be digging into your wallet to pay the city for your stupidity.  All you had to do was take 5 seconds instead you wanted to drive and pay.

Answer 11
