May 29th: Teen Think Thursday - Personal Safety Laws

[TheIceMaiden]

You are risking other people's lives by not wearing a seatbelt. In a collision a person not wearing a seatbelt can be vaulted out of their seat and potentially crash into other cars or other passengers in the car.

Not wearing your seatbelt can kill everyone in the car. If you're unbuckled in the backseat, and you have a crash, you can shoot forward, smack the guy in the front of you (the force of which at 30mph is like an elephant running towards you).

In the UK, we have television adverts to highlight this. Not wearing your seatbelt is very, very dangerous for everyone in the car, not just for you.

Cool vid =).

I agree. It should be up to me if I want to risk injury on myself or not. Very random subject but good views on it. =]

[xxQUiCKY]

seat belts really aren't a big deal, it takes like 2 seconds to put them on and I think it should be a law because NOT wearing is just dumb. haha just my 2 cents.

Surely by the same can be said about drugs - if you do drugs within your own home you don't affect anyone else the government can't stop you...

[ClassofAwesome]

But if you get out of your home, in a delusional state, you could potential injure someone you wouldn't have injured sober.

Or if you were pregnant, you would be hindering the life of your child.

[ezsandler]

Ok, so if you are within your home and don't leave it's legal (or is it about potential), pregnancy point - stupid because the same could be said about seat belts.

I disagree,

But yet I agree.

Pinky the Goldfish will have something to say about this.

[MsGodDiva]

Great idea to voice your views on social issues. Positive influence
