Comment on Wear your seatbelt

I had someone once put their seatbelt on when I asked, and then took it off again once I was moving. So I pulled over and said to put it back on, and keep it on, or get ready for a lung walk.
The audacity of some people.

I have sat for nearly 10 minutes while the unbelted person fumed mostly silently
You get one chance to put it on before I pull the car over and put it in park. In this case I turned the car off, pulled out my headphones, and started watching Lord of the Rings on my phone.
The best driver in the world can still get T-boned at an intersection or rear ended at a stop sign. I’m the one driving, you will abide by my safety rules. Take your own vehicle or ride the bus if you don’t want a seat belt.

People really need to watch some crash videos with people without a seatbelt, you become a fucking projectile, I have seen one where two women are sitting in the back one without a belt and she slams really fucking hard into the other one that had a seatbelt, as in you can hear the head on head on contact.
For frontal crashes if someone is sitting behind you without a seat belt, they will literally crush you to death above a certain speed.
