I don't have too much of a problem with seatbelt laws for children, but agree with creekster about adults being able to opt out, as long as they pay for their own medical costs. I wear a seatbelt because it's a habit I learned when I started driving before the laws were passed.
That said, I'd rather be in a 1965 Buick Electra without a seatbelt than a 2010 Prius wearing a seatbelt."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach FinstockComment

I thought the same thing. The survivability that newer cars offer you in a wreck is far ahead of the metal monsters of yesteryear and it isn't even close.Originally posted by Donuthole View Post"The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

Having opt-outs on laws with caveats sounds like a lot of laws and regulations about what regulations can be imposed.Originally posted by il Padrino Ute View Post
I am all for liberty but some of the knee jerk "nanny state" avoidance seems like "dumb ass" state enabling to me. Especially objections to seat belts, motorcycle helmets and smoking. I suppose paying a fine might help pay the costs of the "liberty" to be a dumb douche that society ends up paying.Comment
