seat belt question

As far as his rights are concerned, that's his business.I suggest he find the correct wires to tag together or to seperate permanently, just beneath the seatbelt latching mechanism. This will make it possible for the seatbelt to still work as it should for his wife, and to be left un-latched for him.Leaving the light turned out permanently.

The laws concerning this and other safety items should, in my opinion , not be laws. The natural selection process is being hampered. Some folks who would have just died in a crash, are now living to cause other crashes...................I know, I know, No one asked my opinion................but it's here anyway. Survival of the fittest would have taken me out many years ago I'm sure.

i got a set of what i was looking for outta an older car. it works perfectly.

mike.........

else, and

So you would have rather broken your neck flipping around in the van as it rolled over?

Boy, talk about not seeing the forest through the trees.........

boy........talk about butting into other peoples business...........

don't worry about answering the question i asked, i found that the seat belt from an old Ford Taurus fit perfectly so not more blinking light on my dash.

mike...........

I'll take your answers as proof that you realize how dumb your premise is. Without the seat belt, getting you out of the van quickly would have been a moot point most likely.

But I'm glad you've found the part to make your blissful journey into stupidity more comfortable. Which is really what this all about. Comfort.

ANd it IS the law, most everywhere in Canada and the U.S..

And rightly so, under the "mitigation" of damages concept.

Smoke my pole.

that's right.....my personal comfort is my main concern. the more comfortable i am when i drive, the better driver i am. as for the stupid comment, i'lover look that since it seems that you are among those that needs the goverment to feed you and tell you what to do in every aspect of your life. i like making my own decisions, it gives me a feeling of freedom. did you ever hear of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness??

mike.........

to

you're a funny guy...

Freedom isn't free. Hundreds of thousands have died face down in the mud to preserve all kinds of freedoms and you're willing to sacrifice some of it on the off chance it may cost you a few bucks worth of insurance? Grow a pair, Darlene.

"When a legislature undertakes to proscribe the exercise of a citizen's constitutional rights it acts lawlessly and the citizen can take matters into his own hands and proceed on the basis that such a law is no law at all."
