Thoughts, experiences? |
To me seat belts are just like seat belts in a car, safety. Seat belts to me are to protect you from other drivers, not your bad driving. I look at it as I wear them in a car because I’m a good driver & I’m trying to protect myself from them. I think of of it as they’re the bad driver, & cars go 5 times faster. So I agree with your husband! My cart was always set for the legal speed limit for cart paths. I always stop dead still at stop signs before continuing. I use my turn signals, always & turn them off after I turn. Yes seat belts do save lives but I see more people who forget to turn their turn signals off after making their turn. To me that’s just as bad or worse than having seat belts. Just my opinion!
