Even if true, you are talking about one instance. Do you want me to post links on how seat belts have saved lives. I'm afraid it would be pages and pages long. What don't you get about seat belts saving lives. Surely you can't deny that.
I don't like supporting laws that cause 5 year old girls to experience agonizing pain while burning to death due to stupid laws.
Yes for minors - the state should ensure basic safety standards for children who are unable to make completely sound judgments to prevent them from reckless adults who don't buckle them in.
No for adults. It's not the government's job to protect people from themselves. Why not outlaw Big Macs, cigarettes, etc? In my opinion, liberty means that people are free to make their own decisions as long as it doesn't infringe upon the rights of someone else. Even if those decisions are bad.
Sorry pal, you have not proven that this ever happened. Show us a link to the actual accident.
Are links the end all of any debate?
I got my inforation from a local newspaper - I can also tell you about a lady who was tied up and burned to death on 7/9/99 in South Whittier, CA at the intersection of Florence Ave and Inez St - will you say that I am wrong about that just becuase I can't provide a link? She was kidnapped from the corner of Imperial Blvd. and San Pedro Ave in Los Angeles too,
I'm sorry that you weren't aroud prior to 1996 - when people didn't have instant access to the Internet unless they were in the military, an academic, or had the funds to own a computer and subscribe to Usenet or other online portals.
A child seat is the same type of restraint as a seat belt. Are you really advocating for a little girl to suffer agonizing pain becuase she was required by the law to wear a defice that restrained her from escaping from flames?
How sadistic can you be?
No they are not the same thing, I do however think it is very important for companies that make child seats should go through extreme testing to make sure that these things never happen. This is an issue with the maker of a child seat, not a seat belt law. Learn the difference.
