a campaign to rid NJ politics of corruptionAs a resident of NJ, I can tell you that unfortunately, not much short of a nuclear bomb big enough to level the state could rid NJ politics of corruption.

“The CorzineCrushDummy demonstrated how not wearing seat belts can make dummy subject to thrust from the air bag and subsequent flight towards the back and cargo space, with broken ribs, spine and legs.”
Sounds like this fellow would have been better off wearing his seatbelt and having the air bags disabled.

Corzine is a Bucklehead! No, he is an unbuckledhead!
With respect to you both, I think he's a "NoBuckleHead."

Crash Test Dummy Corzine ... or Governor Corvair - Unsafe at Any Speed.

No doubt he’ll get a ticket. But the folks here seem to want to tape it to his respirator tube. That’s a bit harsh.
He’s learned his lesson, the hard way. Is there *anyone* here who has always worn a belt, and observed the speed limit? Will you in the future?

Sounds like this fellow would have been better off wearing his seatbelt and having the air bags disabled. There were problems one time with air bags firing up for no reason. Some people pull out air bag fuse to disable them and rely on belts. The better alternative is the four point safety belts, like in the aircraft and race cars. Nice uniform distribution of load across the upper body and positive retention (except head clonk).
There are stories of people being hurt more by the air bags than actual collision.

Laws are for the masses, not their ruling elites.

Probably quite a few, but the laws of physics caught him.

Wasn’t there a young chick in the car with Corzine at the time. Makes you wonder if he had his seatbelt undone to get some nookie on the way to the meeting.

I wish the governor well in his recovery but this really is poetic justice. Ben Rothenburger got a ticket for not wearing a ticket in his hospital room, so why shouldn't Corzine? Maybe the damn liberals can now see how cruel they are. I'm no angel, but unlike Gov C, I always wear my seatbelt, but advocate against mandatory seatbelt laws. Also, Gov C was endangering other people to make a photo op, and also they tried to blame an innocent kid who was just getting out of the way of the 91 mile an hour train.

In NJ you fail your driver's test if you do not insist that the examiner buckle up.
Approximately half of my 10 minute driver's test was spent getting the examiner to buckle up. He tried to bargain his way out of it by saying he would automatically give me a pass if I didn't amke him buckle up for the hundredth time today, then he said he failed people who made him buckle up and that he had failed plenty of people today and he'd be happy to fail me, and on and on.
After it was over he apologized and told me that it was now a major component of the exam because failure to belt up killed more people in NJ than drunk driving.
To: dfwgator
Yes, thats what I think too.
It’s been a pack of lies since the story broke.
I can’t believe he was thrown into the back seat during a spin, then side impact. I think he would have stayed in the front of the SUV, then splattered on a front door with the side impact.
I cant imagine a big 200 pound man flying over the top of the front seats, then splattering on a side door.
Makes no sense to me.... unless this is another BS story they need to keep the governor out of trouble.

My guess, hes on his knees, then launched over the women when hitting guardrail, breaking chest on left rear door. Then whipped back to opposite back right door breaking leg on the boomerang 180 whip after the initial guard rail hit. My opinion, The woman was bouncing around under him, his body shielding her from violent impact.
