That is almost word for word one of the arguments against seatbelts in cars. Turns out it was wrong there too.
Maybe roll cages and seatbelts would be a good idea, thankfully not too many innocent bystanders are killed by golf cart drivers flying out and hitting them.
So, not wearing seatbelts is kind of Darwin in real time.
