Senate Passed New Seat Belt Law

[Sasquatch]

I'm not too crazy about this. I buckle up, but I just see it as another reason to pull people over and to receive the federal funding.

I thought they could pull you over for no seat belt already?

Oh well, I always wear mine.

It is habit for me, no worries here.

automatic seat belt ftw

i really dont care, because i always wear my seatbelt, its just habit. but i can just see cops pulling you over for any reason now, because "you werent wearing your belt" just to have a reason to get you. That and i can see tint tickets becoming more frequent..

either way, it has to pass the house and the gov..

What about this midnight curfew for teen drivers that's included in the bill? Limiting to one non-family passenger under the age of 20? Screw that.

Do you also wear the lap belt with that auto seat belt? Ask your bro about that one . . . lap belt required or you get a ticket!

You are a dumbass. What good is a shoulder belt if you arent going to wear the lap belt? Strangle your ass when you ass slides off the seat in a front hit?

I got pulled over and ticketed for no seatbelt in my 74 GMC once, after I told him that it didn't have shoulder belts and that he couldn't have possibly known if I was wearing the lap belt, he informed me that I also failed to yield, even though I was sitting at a stop sign. Fucking crooked cops.

Everyone in here should watch Aaron Russo's documentary; freedom to facism. It is in typical 'persuasive' documentary format. But damn is it good. If anyone is interested give me a ring on AIM or pm me.

Sounds just like what happened to me, said I rolled through a stop sign
