Default Re: Seat Belts

I had my '58 Chevy Yeoman before I got married to my second wife. She had rolled a late model Buick end over end and survived w/o a scratch. She said she wouldn't ride in a car w/o seat belts, so I installed them in my Chevy, and later a 63 1/2 Galaxie. We always use them.

Just recently, there was an accident in OK where 6 teenage girls were killed in a car when they ran into a semi truck. Only the front seat occupants had their seat belts on, but they all died. Apparently, OK is the only state that doesn't have a law requiring rear seat passengers to wear seatbelts. But, in this case, it was a small FOUR SEATER car that had six people in it, so it's doubtful that anyone would have survived anyway.
