Since we have the law now to have to wear seat belts, ever notice how few police in TV sbows and movies put on the seat belt. Then proceed to a car chase taking them over the steep hills in San Francisco with the car flying in the air .

Yes! And if you look close you can see all the tire marks where they practiced the scene a hundred times before they shot it.

If you think that's bad, notice how many of them don't have a rear view mirror...

Whenever a scene is shot such that the camera is looking into the car from over the hood, so that you can see the faces of the driver and passenger, it's common for the rear view mirror to be removed so that it doesn't clutter up the shot.

LOL -- I swear, just as I was typing this, there was a commercial on TV (the one where the guy is letting his dog drive his truck), and sure enough, the rear view mirror was absent.
