about 2 years ago my cousin was involved in a serious accident. ford explorer on the highway doin about 65 missed the exit but still tried to take the turn resulting in a rollover. she was in the passenger seat, next to the driver with 3 friends in the back. all but the two guys siting behind her (on the sides) were wearing a seatbelt. and wouldnt you know it the two guys behind her were ejected out of the windows, one was beheaded right there. the driver, my cousin, and the other passenger (in the middle of the bench) all survived despite some broken bones and cuts.

point being seatbelts do save lives, maybe you may get lucky in some previous accidents, but all it takes is a minor misjudgement like that and your gone (and maybe your passengers as well).
