I must admit it's quite tricky pulling a seatbelt on. Sometimes it takes around a second and if you're going on several trips, it can eat into your day.

A trip to hospital or the undertaker would waste more time though.

Bet you drive around with your fogs on too?

No-one expects to have an accident, but the majority of accidents occur within 3 miles of home, like trips to the corner shop to get some milk. Do yourself a favour, belt up

Just found out he was not wearing a seatbelt from a close friend.
Use your head mate, belt up before you loose yours.

If my wife had been wearing a seatbelt then I wouldnt have to go to the cemetery to see her. It could never happen to you......or so you may think. Take it from someone who really knows.

So your most of the way to wearing one, why not just finish the job off?

I thought there was no need to educate people in the benefits of wearing one, seems Im wrong.

Nothing to do with the law, only a complete tw*t would be dumb enough to not wear a seat belt, you clearly are one of them.

Scoobydooooo, if you were involved in an RTA and god forbid you were injured or killed due to you not wearing a seat belt, how do you think the person that hit you would feel? You would ruin there lives FULLSTOP

No one is having a go, just pointing out that lives are precious, just check out the thread on the General forum right now to see how heartbreaking losing loved ones can be.

Why not buy some cotton wool & make some nice comfy ear plugs that will stop the nasty noise from that nasty alarm spoiling your day.

Also handy to get the blood off the windscreen.

Don't push them in too far or you will use up the whole pack.

As there is obviously plenty of space between your ears.

Alternative is to use tampax.

Which you would have already to hand presumably.

Peace & love.And remember it will never happen to you.

Can we ask why you don't like wearing your seatbelt?

Are you against it being compulsory to wear one? Are you to short or to tall and it's uncomfortable, or do you have severe depression and a death wish?

What else is a hindrence to this muppet, can he have slightly more to drink if he's just popping to the shops?, does he really need car insurance?, does he bother to turn the lights on?
