"Police say 40 percent of drivers don't use their seat belts at night, making the roads much more dangerous after sunset."
Just how does the ROAD get more dangerous when some other clown dosen't put on his belt ?
Let me say off the top that I wear my seatbelt religiously and thus don't really have a dog in the seatbelt legislation fight. However, I cannot for the *life* of me figure out how not wearing a seatbelt endangers anyone else's life. If someone wants to be stupid and engage in reckless behavior that only endangers themselves, go for it.
You haven't been paying attention. First of all, law enforcement employees are not the sharpest tools in the drawer; they will enforce anything.
Secondly, have you not noticed the "1984" doublespeak of the last 20 years? The controllers and the parasites can make the most outrageous and non-sensical statements, and are never challenged.
Don't ask questions!
