Who does and doesn't wear a seat belt?

If not, why?

No judgement! Just curious. No comment wars over it.

I always wear mine and everyone in my car will be properly restrained or the car goes nowhere. From 1995-2005 I was a part-time EMT and ran numerous collisions on freeways and rural roads with a paramedic partner. Some were fatalities that, even with seat belts, the laws of physics were too much for these souls.

But when you pull up to a 90's Pontiac split in two and all occupants are standing on the side of the freeway, and during assessment tell you they were 3-point restrained, the evidence is quite clear that seat belts save lives.

Yup... seat belts properly worn may well save your life or prevent much more serious injury.
