I respect everyone's opinion and it doesn't get me fired up I just don't think that giving people tickets at $25 or $75 a pop doesn't make up for the 20 BILLION dollars that it costs when people have accidents that results in fatalities when not wearing there seat belts. Unfortunately there has to be laws or else people wouldn't wear them which that 20 billion dollar number would increase. Why do they posts speed limits? Yea the government makes money off of tickets, but it's also based on statistics, population and physics. Not all laws that are enacted make sense but the seatbelt one in my opinion is a no brainer.
