I got pulled over Sunday morning while pulling into my parking spot at work. The prick had seen me pass him at wendy's from leaving the gas station and as I pulled into my spot he flipped on his lights. He said it was click-it-or-ticket week and he had no choice but to give me a ticket ... Even worse, all my co-workers and my GM walked outside and laughed at me WHILE the tooper was writing my ticket.

Here's a pretty picture I made to show you the short distance I drove and yet still got a ticket. The yellow is me, the Red is him

My bud here at work just got an emergency call from home. His daughter in Georgia just had an accident. Drove into a tree attempting to miss an oncoming vehicle.

No seatbelt

hearing about accidents doesnt make me wear my seat belt, but does make me more aware when driving. Just like riding a street bike, you hear about someone getting killed, didnt make me want to sell my bike just hightened my awareness when riding

My manager told me a great story about why you should always wear a seat belt. He's the gangster-lean driving style type of guy, and he got into an accident without a seat belt on. He rear-ended a stopped car, and the airbag deployed. The airbag saved him from serious injury, but he said he couldn't sit down for 2 weeks because the friction burn on his ass was so bad. Now he wears a damn seat belt. If you ride in my car, guess what? You're wearing a damn seat belt, I don't want to have to worry about skid marks on my leather seats as we go plowing into a fence.

Friction burn was probly was from his saggin pants raming up his ass.

hes not the sagging type, hes the pinstripe shirt with fedora type of gangster-leaner, he drives a blacked out 300, but its on stock wheels. And those fences come out of nowhere man.

I'm not a supporter of the seat belt law either. Its not about enforcing a useful law its about revenue.....when will most get that
I came to this realization the day me and my friend were both ticketed for not wearing our seatbelts, and we had them on the whole time. He was driver and I was passenger. Took the cop to court and we both won. Fuck the police...

my dad raced scca and circle track and I was taught to always wear a seatbelt. I actually don't feel in control of the vehicle unless I have a seat belt on!!

I also received a seat belt ticket from W.H. pd years ago when I was wearing one. was pulled over in my exceptionally loud mustang for a mysterious tag lite malfunction (that worked when checked), when the officer came to my door and asked for license and registration, I unbuckled, got out my wallet to get license and he wrote me. When I stated he just watched me unbuckle he told me to shut my g.d. mouth if I knew what was good for me!!

I had a friend who was driving his truck. Tire hit something in the road and the truck rolled over on top of him and he died. If he was the seatbelt on he would not have died at 18 years old. If people do not want to wear a seatbelt then the clock is ticking on your life with all the fools that now live here and can not drive.
