And on a similar note, I hope that everyone wears a seatbelt when driving. Even if your car did not have one as standard for its year, I feel it is an essential piece of safety equipment, and should

Well, bailing is of limited use unless you can get far away from the vehicle as well. Who wants to be standing 10 feet from the scene of a tractor trailer destroying an MG? Might be safer in the car.

Bobby: By the time you know for sure that that huge vehicle really is bearing down on you, and is not going to stop, I think it would be too late to bail out. At the very best, you would be half in,

I always wear my 3 point seatbelt. In the event that "shit happens" on 95, would you prefer to fly out at 65 mph into a vehicle on the opposing traffic side traveling at 65. That would be like hittin
