Yes, and I would even if it weren't the law. They're uncomfortable but I'd hate to die in an automobile accident just because I wasn't wearing one.

I always wear my seat belt, even if it weren't the law. I do it mainly out of habit, it's very uncomfortable for me to ride in a car without my seat belt, my mom was in an awful car wreck a year ago. I would hate for that to happen to me.

Yes, now so even more that I'm driving and I don't trust myself. :lol:

I don't remember the last time I didn't wear one.

When you ride such crappy cars like we do here in Serbia, you would get use to wearing a seatbelt after you experience almost falling out of a running car because the car door opened on a sharp turn. :lol:

I feel strange without one, even if the car didn't start to beep manically.

That's terrifying! I'm never driving a Serbian car.

It wasn't for me. I couldn't stop laughing, it was hilarious. :lol:

Be glad that at least it HAD a door.

Oh, I'm not riding in a Serbian car no more. We bough a Romanian one three years ago. :mrgreen:
