I have to be honest I rarely wear a seatbelt while working as we are a very urban area and we are in and out of the cars alot. I may rethink that now. Again Im glad your not permanently injured.

Chris,

This crash happened 300 feet from the PD driveway. I had just fueled up and talked to a 4 yr old kid about seat belts. His mom had asked me to talk to him since he unhooks his seatbelt and gets out of the seat while she is driving. When I left I said to him " see, even I wear my belt all the time". Less than 2 miles later I am crashed and on the way to the hospital. Had I not been wearing my belt I would have been in trouble.
