I have always worn a seatbelt since around 1965. I will never forget, our entire family was in the van driving to the new city we were moving to, so we could check out where the school, church, etc was.

We were on the freeway, and a VW beetle merged on and across 2 lanes until it sideswiped us. It then rolled back across 3 lanes. My dad pulled over, and expected to find a dead person in the car.

Turned out it was some college chick that happened to have seatbelts (pretty much unheard of at the time).

After seeing that, my dad turned around, went to an auto parts store, and bought and installed seatbelts for all of us.

I have never felt comfortable in a car without them ever since.
