Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
The only time I am in the backseat is when we are taking other people with us and I am sitting with the kids. There is usually no seatbelt left for me.

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
I dont sit in the backseat too often and when I do I guess I dont' think about it since I never made it a habit to use the seatbelt in the backseat.
I actually only know of one person who wears a seatbelt if she's sitting in the backseat.

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
Depends on the driver. With DH (Mario Andretti) I do when I sit in the back with Liam in his carseat (which is not all the time only if he's acting up). Also b/c he has a leather interior and I slide all over if I don't wear one.
With my sister I don't - she's a very defensive driver though. I don't think my DH is a good defensive driver. I am trying to make him into one...

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
i always wear a seatbelt regardless of where i'm sitting. it doesn't matter where you're sitting, you could still die and even in the backseat you CAN go through the windshield! you can also go out the window or sunroof.
the simple "click" can save your life. you could be a very "defensive" driver and be smashed up and killed by a reckless one.
the WORST is when i see families that let their kids roam around the backseat. they should be arrested for child abuse. harsh, i know, but children don't know any better and DESERVE to be protected by the adults in their lives.
do yourself a favor--make a new years resolution to always wear a belt and make sure your kids learn their habits from you as a role model. it may save your life!!!

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
I just read that the safest seat in the car beleive it or not is the middle seat in the back. you have an 80% better cahnce of survival if your wearing the seat belt 30 if your not. I don't always wear it in the back But i know I should

I dont just because...no real good reason, but I know it is stupid, especially since my cousin was killed in a car accident while sitting in the backseat...

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
I'm sorry, but I cannot believe people are trying to justify not wearing their seat belts in the back seat because it's safer? That's the most assanine thing I've heard in a long time. Go ahead and flame me for saying that. I'm sorry I care about your life more than you do, I guess, then

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
I always wear a seatbelt in the back seat. It is a law here. If you don't then the driver gets a fine, so the driver of a car is always checking the passengers before they start to drive. IMO it is the driver's responsibility as much as it is the person(s) in the back seat.

Re: For the people who don't wear seatbelts in the back seat...
Honestly, I never even thought about it until I had Ali. Since it is not much of a habit since I never wore it in the past, I forget sometimes, but I try to remember do it all the time now.

Brava I agree. I ALWAYS wear a seatbelt, regardless of front or backseat.
