Why would automatic seat belts decrease your insurance? They dont make it any less likely you will crash.

 PS: Automatic seatbelts are the most RETARDED thing I've ever heard of. I only just found out they existed and I already wish I hadn't. How hard is it to put a seat belt on manually? Or is it for fat people who can't reach over their own shoulders?

 Whats next? A car that automatically drives itself for you?


Buses drive you places, so I guess you could say thats already indirectly been invented.

They force lazy Americans to wear a belt. Its not so much, in the majority of cases that I have observed, that we cannot put our seat belts on. It is that many people forget, or find belts (particularly shoulder straps) to be uncomfortable. So they don't wear them. When they wreck, they are more likely to be hurt or killed. Insurance companies, believe it or not, do not want you to be hurt that badly and/or killed because they're the ones paying for your medical treatment.

The person we hit in '02 was ejected from her Nissan, if she had been driving a Ford Tempo, well, she and thousands of others would probably be alive or not seriously hurt.

With the money it would have cost us to pay the medical bill in our wreck, we could have bought several cars.

Over here they call it a green slip you pay like 100 bucks for it every 2-3 years and the govnerment will pay for all that.
