I don't have any statistics to show but I was a member of a rescue squad
for two years. Before joining the rescue squad I had seen all the highway
horror films in driver's education classes but still didn't wear seat belts.

I saw one accident in particular that really convinced me and have been
wearing seat belts ever since (even as a back seat passenger). I can recall
*NO* accidents where the vehicle occupants would have been better off without
seat belts.
