RE: seat belt ticket
Good luck on that. Since the shoulder harness was installed but not used your more than likely going to have to pay. Wearing only the lap belt while a shoulder harness is installed is NOT properly using the seat belt system.

Please don't tell me you are one of the elder members who thinks that the days with out having to wear a seat belt were the best because that is total bull****. If people think that their having to wear a seatbelt is such a huge restriction on their ability to enjoy driving then they are are idiots. It's not a loss of rights at all, it's common f-ing sense, those damn little "nuisances" save so many people in wrecks all the time. I'm sorry to be kinda harsh but I was in a serious wreck about a year ago where the car was rolled and the only reason I'm still here is because i had my "annoying" seatbelt on. I broke 4 vertebrae and was in a halo for 2 months and its because i had that thing on I wasn't hurt anymore or thrown out into the trees and killed.

this really isnt pertaining to the topic at hand, but in my personal opinion auto makers should be required to install safety harnesses in vehicle but their use shouldnt be required by law, now there are various good points for them being required and like wise being your choice but this is not the thread to discuss the matter, i simply posed the question as to whether my particular situation had occured to any other classic mustang owner and would appreciate it if that arguement wasnt taken up here, thank you [sm=imsorry.gif]
