Yes seat belts, and the injuries have been called the “nickel ride”.
There is no sense in pretending (making up falsehoods) that others don’t get injured, and that the vans don’t come with seat belts, those cops were supposed to seat belt him in.
I didn't make up any falsehoods. I asked some questions.
that others don’t get injured,
I'm sure some have, but HOW PREVELANT is it?
and that the vans don’t come with seat belts,
I didn't say NEW ONES DON'T. I said that They didn't have them when I was younger, and I bet that some of them still don't have them. Matter of fact, the 'regulation' requiring the cops to strap in the arrestee's is VERY NEW and some of the cops weren't aware of it (according to some of the earlier articles).
those cops were supposed to seat belt him in.
When they put you in the back of a police car (handcuffed), do they force you to put on a seatbelt ?
