Personally I like for drivers to be in as much control of their vehicles as possible. That necessarily includes wearing a seat belt. The airbags do nothing to keep you in control, and ESC is of only limited use in that regard.

Please use your seat belt.

Your personal likes or dislikes have nothing to do with freedom.

Just like cell phone use, Bush passed legislation outlawing individual states and counties from passing laws against their use, did the same thing with firearms.

I can drive with a cell phone in one hand and a 45 in the other, but because of those meddling pricks Rubio and Crist I have to be strapped in.

I do, because I love me. And it was nice of you to ask, without sending men in blue uniforms, wearing guns, and getting paid by a government to make sure I do.

Wearing seatbelts is a good idea.

Sending armed agents of the state to enforce it is a bad idea.

Because government is all about the naked use of force.

Not persuasion.
