Batp something I learned from PO245 dang I think that was his number been to long. Anyway he and his kids always played a game with it. If they caught him without his seatbelt he owed them an ice cream and if he caught them without it he owed them a ice cream and something about their butts.

That's what we've done I currently owe like 8 ice creams. I get nailed if I don't have it on by the time I start backing out of the driveway. But then again that's the only time they can get me since I always wear it.

Just remember when you don't wear it for that little trip down the road because its not that far would you want your kid to take that same chance that's what keeps me wearing them. Also most do occur within a mile of the house.

As far as getting caught if the car catches on fire or goes into water. I know what they show on TV but very very few wrecks result in fire and if they do and you get trapped in the car the chances are that your trapped due to damage to the car not the seat belt. As far as water you have plenty of time to get that belt off before the car would get under water most of the time and its easier to get out of the car once it is totally submerged due to the pressure becoming equal. I guess the way I look at it with a belt you have alot better chances of making it and reducing your injury.
