If the threat of fines isn't enough to make anti-seatbelt advocates follow the law, I invite you to read over the following links.

Gov. Corzine and his injuries. His hospital bill, by the way, will run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Fortunately, he's a multi-millionaire and can afford to pay for it himself:

And debunking the myth of the "thrown clear" excuse:

Buckle up, people! I want all of you around for a long time!

A bit off topic, but I worked for a short time with the orthopedic surgeon that fixed the Governor's broken leg. Good guy, and one of the best to fix an open femur fracture...

altho i don't think there should be a law, or that it should be a primary offense (secondary here in arkansas), i do wear a seatbelt.

but i do think it should be enforced for children and safety seats!

we had two fatalities in less than 24 hours on the same stretch of road, both drivers were ejected-the one guy would have lived had he had his seatbelt on, the other i don't think it would have mattered.
he drove under a log truck, and was partially decapitated. i came up on the wreck right after it happened, no emergency vehicles yet or anything. i don't think i'll ever forget seeing him laying there.

but had he been wearing a seatbelt, he may not have gotten tossed partially out of the open window, and the head injury may not have occurred....it was pretty gruesome.
