That's true enough, Drina, but I'd have to see the actual studies, not someone's oversimplified summary of them, before I would believe anything.
By the way--I always wear a seatbelt! I was once injured in an accident where I wasn't wearing one (because the car didn't have them--and now you know how old I must be...
). I really got the point! Not only that, but no one rides in my car unless they also put on their seatbelt.
