I think your anecdotal examples are good because you know three people with rollovers. Is that three separate incidences, or two, or one?

But I do think the statistics lately are more telling. My mother, and even some young people I knew in the '90s, used being trapped in a car as a reason not to use seatbelts. I must admit, I thought they were just lacking in education about the safety stats or were using that as an excuse because they just didn't want to wear them. That wouldn't be you. I think it might be some people who won't install them in golf carts.
Hi CFfrance: My reference again to the three rollovers were three separate accidents Again only used to show some balance to this issue. and my heart bled for each of those people. I met one face to face a young guy just 20 and actually cried when I walked away

I am a believer in seat belts indeed tried to have them installed and the repair guy said it was difficult because of the seats I purchased for my cart. Will try again

Personal Best Regards:
