You've hit on a larger issue here that has nothing to do with seatbelts. If the State has the authority to use public money to build and maintain roads, then it surely has the authority to pass some very intrusive regulations about how these roads are used.

I agree that seatbelt laws are "violations of our freedom," but the time to confront this issue was decades ago. Let's tear up every square inch of pavement that has been publicly funded over the last 100 years, then we'll talk about getting rid of seatbelt laws.

Pavement's a good thing, nannies aren't.
