The Expert Jerk: Click It or Ticket - Seat Belt Safety or Stupidity? - Comments Page 2

A nationwide crackdown begins. Your safety is the focus. The issue is seat belts?

On May 21, be sure to start wearing your seat belt because a nationwide operation has begun: Click It or Ticket. I’m so glad law enforcement officials will be observing the seat belt usage of the entire nation. It’s much better than tracking down the crackheads and tweakers in the community. Those types only rob banks and kill people, unlike the losers who don’t wear their seat belts in their own vehicle. Those guys are the worst.I just don’t get the seat belt issue. Okay, sure, there is some evidence that seat belts can prevent some injuries. Here are some statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website:…

    Okay I have read and seen a few articles on the click it or ticket law. Now I have never been victimized by this idiotic law, and in my honest opinion the law is complete BS. My validation on this is that if seat belts are so important than why do they continue to make them an option in all manufactured vehicles. I mean think about why not by law require the many vehicle manufacturers to make them an automatic accessory that will strap over the occupants with out any thought necessary. All the click it or ticket law is, is a way for the government to have even more control over our decisions and to control our lives as they see fit. Many people do and don't think that the government is moving more and more towards a socialistic government which means we would only be one step away maybe 4 years tops to being a communist country. So if any one who wants to look more into it be my guest, again I don't pay much attention to politics but believe me when I say this no matter who you vote for the government is going to put who ever they want in office. If you disagree with me feel free to comment on it but all I know is I don't trust our government as far as the value of the American Dollar will take me in another country which at this current rate of collapse by our so called super power country one of the Big 3 as they say is worth nothing because as Americans we value nothing but our own selves.

    Yeah I like how we supposedly live in the "land of the free", yet we are not free to decide wether or not we want to wear our seatbelt in our own vehicle...all because the cops need to meet quota!
