Re: 1965 Seat Belts???

I absolutely HATE the seat belt law here in California. The law was put on the ballot twice and was voted down by the people both times. The good old CA government still forced it down our throats "to save lives" funny thing is the seat belt law has absolutely NOTHING to do with saving lives, it's about saving the insurance companys money period. It was the insurance lobby that got this law passed. Here's the kicker, 3 of my immediate family members survived 2 separate accidents because they were NOT wearing their seat belts. Had they been wearing their seat belts they would have been killed in the accidents. Admittedly they were both T bone accidents but wearing seat belts should be our choice & not mandated by the government or shall I say the insurance lobby.
