re: mandatory seatbelts impinging your personal freedom

Here are some other freedoms that are being impinged.

1) The right to drive a formula racer on public highways at 175 MPH  (in order
to get past those slow-moving imcompetent idiots that are going only 85).

2) The right to ignore other posted traffic signs ("Why should *I*, a skilled
driver, have to stop at an intersection just because there's a red sign there
to stop those not as intelligent as myself?").

3) The right to move in any direction on any road regardless of posted
directional signs ("Who is the government to tell me which direction I should
drive?")

...and so on...

If you don't like the rules on public roads, don't drive on them.  (Or become
a bureaucrat and change them.  Those a**holes who feel their freedom is
endangered by such tings deserve such a fate.)
