Don't know if its true or just marketing but I remember a Highway Patrolman state he never had to unbuckle a dead body in an accident.
"never had to unbuckle a dead body in an accident."
I have. Doesn't always work, but they work more often than not.
My father in law was a Patrolman for tenty years and told me the very same thing.
You are more likely to survive buckled, but I have seen that it does not always work that way.
And is no reason for another law!
He must have been a rookie patrolman. That being said, I wear mine. My dad taught me young to emulate my hero race drivers. I feel more comfortable that way.
I used to run heavy equipment and refused to wear a belt in the cab. never got hurt, and could reach all the controls.
Just marketing. My mother was killed in a collision while wearing her seatbelts.
The insurance company paid an extra $1000 because of it, though.
