" wearing your seat belt can save lives but they may cause deaths also.. I have had 2 family members to die as a result of not being able to get the belt unfastened. They were upside down in 4 ft. of water when they hydroplaned into a creek in ohio. the child was 13 and her mother was only 35. Yes seat belts do save many lives, but there is always the flip side of the issue....they make a saftey hammer that i carry in my car at all times now. it mounts to the floor and can break a window out if you are trapped and also has a knife built into it to cut the belts if they are stuck....please drive safely..

" I was so sorry to hear about Florence McCann's terrible auto accident and that she died on Friday, my thoughts and prayers go out to her family and everyone that was in that accident. But was totally shocked to read that NONE of them were wearing their seat belts. WEARING YOUR SEAT BELT MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE! If you get into the habit of putting it on it feels like something is missing when you don't wear it. Please wear your seat belt and make sure your children do too. "
