Default Buckle up okay?

Dramatic video of un-buckled crash test dummys in an SUV roll over.

Better not let my youngest daughter see this. God forbid I forget to buckle up before starting to drive! The little seat-belt Nazi sure has a knack for correcting any of my unsafe habits.

Please be careful what you post here.

Blood and gore will NOT be appreciated and could possibly get you brig time.

That being said this one is hard to believe !!

Personaly, I've lived through 2 wrecks that would (without a doubt) have killed me, had I been wearing a seat belt. My sister, who always buckled up, died in her one and only wreck.

Seat belts work both ways. They can be life savers, or life takers. On that topic I follow Nature's Law Of Survival, and ignore Man's Law.

The world's greatest safety device, is an attentive and careful driver.

Think of it as natural selection. Have seen the actual aftermath plenty of times aswell, finding a head on theb ack seat while the body it used to be attached to is flung several meters from the wreck is a tad unnerving.

It was a pre-emptive strike
