Why have reclining seats at all? If you're not supposed to use them when riding in the car, what's the point?

What they really need is swivel seats so you can turn around and smack the kids.

In High School they were pretty useful when the car was parked.

Is the car supposed to protect you from all potential damage, or does the driver take responsibility to ensure that they don't crash into stationary ambulances?

This just reminds me of the Jury verdict against Ford for the girl that was thrown out of the passenger window of an explorer. She wasn't wearing her seatbelt and the jury decided that the window should have been able to keep her in the vehicle. I suppose we would all be satisfied with windows that didn't roll down.

Is everyone ready for their seatbelts to attach to the underside of the seat, between their legs?

Sometimes stuff happens and it is just plain bad luck.

Because not everyone is 5' 7" tall and weighs 165 lbs.

Your damn right. If I built them, it would be milk boxes with ropes to tie you in. (grin)

Reclined seats make for better car sex. Or so my friend tells me.

I know that my answer isn't as exciting as the others, but when I'm driving long distances and pull over to a rest area to take a nap, I'm very happy that my seat reclines.

Silly Wolfie! 3 reasons right of the top of my skull:
1. Rest stops;
2. Drive-in movies (yeah, there still are such things!); and
3. Lover's Lane.

Why have reclining seats at all?

I've enjoyed the humorous answers to your question. On a more serious note, I'd like to see reclining seats BANNED on airplanes and buses. People may or may not utilize them in cars, but no one should utilize them on public transportation when anyone is behind them.

Back to the matter at hand.... TORT REFORM NOW!!!

Speak for yourself. There are other uses for reclining seats.
