I've been t-boned twice. Both times by drunks hitting me in the drivers door. The slowest impact was just over 45 mph. I wasn't wearing my seatbelt, I never do. Both times that's what saved me, had I been obeying the law I'd have been dead for sure. Both times the door was caved in to the center console or beyond. I was thrown to the passenger side. I'd have had a hood ornament stuck in my chest had I been strapped in. I raced motorcycles for years, crashed at over 80 too many times to count. Walked away from all but one that rang my bell a bit too hard. lol
Nothing is 100 percent, never will be. I'll take my chances thank you. Where do you call it quits? When they enforce wearing anti skid slippers in the shower so you don't break your neck?
