I don't get it. Why do people not wear seatbelts?! If it's a physical problem and it's impossible then that's understandable but otherwise people should probably wear them! I was in a wreck last year where I was flung full force in my car, my seat belt locked and I was flung back. I had bruises and all the other fun stuff that comes with nasty car accidents but it would've been a lot worse if I didn't have my seatbelt on and was flung through the windshield  The seatbelt actually does serve a purpose other than being uncomfortable 
Am I the only one that gets really frustrated with this? Or do I sound like some crazy lady that just needs something ot complain about? I just don't get it??  I know it's the person's decision but when it comes to my friends not wearing them then I get mad. I'm wacky =)
Sorry...I know I post a lot but I had to vent

Im BIG on wearing seat belts too, so Im with ya on this. For some stupid reason, people seem to think if they are within 5 miles of thier home they dont need to buckle up or if they are in the backseat they dont need to buckle up. WRONG! Most wrecks happen within so many miles of the home(I dont remember the exact statistic) and If I am driving my husband's little ford focus and get in a wreck and the person behind me isnt buckled up, they are going to slam into me and probobly kill me. I just love how people think they are safe in the back seat without a seat belt on
. I wont start my truck until everyone is buckled up. And my truck makes horrible beeping noises every 30 seconds if the driver and front passengers arent buckled. I like that feature
