    “Oh yeah? Why should I be wearing a seatbelt in a car when it won’t even save me if we crash head-on into a semi truck at 100 kph?”

      So you don’t get launched out the window and then crushed by your own car for the non-semi accidents.

        So someone doesn’t have to scrape you off the road.

        Correct me if I’m wrong too, but if you’re coming in on a parachute and somehow hit your head during the landing, that could hurt a lot, right?

        It also means I can just flip my front visor down and not worry about stinking goggles.

      These days it might actually save you. Cars have gotten stupid safe in the last decade or so. I’ve seen a car smashed between two semis and the driver only had minor injuries (after they cut them out).

      Crumpel zones ftw!

          Not to be confused with crumple scones.
