The first cars to have Seat belts were made back in the 1960`s. There were plans to make wearing them Law but it wasn`t until 1983 that the Seatbelt Laws were passed.
Does anyone remember the stink kicked up by people who didn`t like being made to wear a seat belt ? Does this ring a bell ?.
Were they called “antiseatbelt users" ? There were plenty opposed to wearing seatbelts and many just ignored the Laws ( and still do !).
Reasons not to wear a seat belt varied but one was that in some instances you could be trapped in the belt after an accident . This did happen in fact but ,just like the people who have died from a Vaccine jab,it was a very small minority.
The arguments about seat belts saving lives ,again ,are similar to Covid Vaccine jabs deaths. Seat belts can`t save all crash victims,even with the added help of Airbags .A serious accident will have fatalities.(note Dianna) Similar with the Vaccines?.
Covid Vaccine can`t guarantee protection from the Virus but nor could Seat belts guarantee protection in an accident .
I thought at the Seat belt time though that there was one serious flaw with the Humans who used seat belts . Without seat belts most drivers drove at a sensible speed to avoid being seriously injured in an accident . Once you get/got locked into a seat belt though drivers increased their speed with the thought ( not knowledge!) that the seatbelt made them safe to drive at speed.
