No it does not. You can choose not to wear a seat belt, and still drive your vehicle. You would be breaking the law and could face a fine, but it does not "prohibit" you from not wearing one.

Alright, I can see what I'm dealing with and it's not worth it to reason with someone who makes statements like that, refers to driving as a "privilege", or can't back up their opinions with logic and/or facts.

Yes, I feel the same way. I am still waiting for your logic and your facts. You have only presented debatable information, just as I have. Maybe that is why this issue has been debated on for years ! There are no definitive answers.

Oh, and driving is a privilege my friend, not a right ( or even a personal freedom as some would argue). If you drive in an irresponsible manner all the time ( or sometimes just once ), you will lose that privilege/freedom. That is a "fact". It happens in our courts of law everyday.
