They did have seat belts .... thats why Kristian... my little brother was killed.... he was knocked unconcious and then she was strangled by his SEATBELT...
When you click on your seatbelt, you are maximizing your chances of surviving. Far more people are killed without a seatbelt who could have survived if they were wearing one than are killed by a seatbelt who would have survived without one. It is smart to play the odds and buckle the belt.
That said, I am sorry for your loss. Nothing justifies such tragedy.
