If carmakers are required to have occupants belted in so that the vehicle will operate, much like a bobcat is how do you find that against you personally?

When you buy a riding lawn mower there is a safety feature that shuts off the PTO when you lift off the seat, is that a violation of my rights wanting to have the PTO running when I am off the mower?

Seems my opinion is shared by many that engineer various kinds of equipment already.

Again you miss the point.

When the law intrudes on the manufacturer (you must be a hug believer in government micro-regulating free enterprise) it is intruding on me and my right to purchase what I want.
