How is a seat belt law different from a speeding law? They are both safety issues, they are both personal decisions and they both affect other peoples safety.



Seatbelts have little or no effect on the safety of those other than the person deciding whether to wear one.

If you want any reasonable person to believe otherwise, you'll need something other than your made-up hypothesis that defies common sense.

You're wrong - when you come flying through your windshield at 70 mph and crash into MY windshield you have just compromised MY safety through YOUR stupidity.
