What affront to the general populace is a driver without a seat belt
causing?

The fact that they are not wearing one does nothing to me, BUT, when they

$1500 MRI every 3 days while they are in there? Who do you think pays for
any needed surgeries?

Insurance companies recoup their costs by raising our rates. If they are
uninsured, the hospital recoups by increasing medical costs, and in some
cases, increased taxes.

End result is WE pay for their ignorance.


True enough, and there's a further cost when the emergency team has to
go get them... that's expensive.

And it can be dreadfully expensive to you, personally, if you have an
accident yourself during the time that they're busy rescuing Mr
Self-Inflicted Injury from his folly. You'll just have to wait and if
you don't make it, too bad.
