Ya know, I have heard the seatbelt/no seatbelt argument and the motorcycle
helmet/no motorcycle helmet argument I guess most of my long life. My dad, god
bless him and his wonderful heart, hated seat belts and would always point out
that one incident where a guy was killed and the investigators said if he
HADN'T been wearing his belt he might have lived. But my Dad still wore seat
belts.
I have concluded one thing, and I have written my State legislators with my
concern, and that is that if you are NOT wearing your seatbelt or your
motorcycle helmet and we are involved in an accident with one another, then MY
liability increases because of YOUR stupid decision not to protect yourself.
Therefore, I would be in favor of a law which provided CHOICE on whether to
wear a seatbelt or a motorcycle helmet AS LONG AS it ALSO RELEASES THE OTHER
DRIVER FROM LIABILITY IN THE EVENT OF A WRECK CAUSING INJURY to your moronic
head or body, regardless of fault (eleminates all the legal wrangling and
hookey-do, and if you protect yourself the law wouldn't matter anyway).
There, simple solution to a stupid problem. 8^)
