Seat Belt Chime Disable

[piranha971]

People have an amazing ability to see only the statistics and arguments that fit their narrative and agenda.....Confirmation bias.....You can find a way to justify almost any nonsense.

I'm a big believer in seat belts (and have come around on air bags after first - a long time ago - being a skeptic). I wear belts 100% in all cars now. But it wasn't always that way. Up until maybe 5-10 years ago I wouldn't wear my belts in our old classic Mustang. My wife constantly berated me about not wearing them. My response was - "this car will never be in an accident so why do I need to wear seat belts?" I've come around so everyone is happy now. And still no accidents for the Stang...

Waay back in the day when I was a youngster my dad had a friend who survived his MG being crushed be a semi. He wasn't wearing belts so was ejected and managed only minor injuries. A miracle....but very much an exception to the rule I think.

I am super proud for you. You are awesome!

Plus with the Caddy your airbag deployment will give you a nice emblem tattoo. -Something to brag about to your friends.

Back in the day my stepbrother was ejected from a horrific crash in an old bug and would have likely been killed without that. But, I wear my seatbelt always. A habit from my private pilot days. I can guarantee if you don’t wear a seatbelt in a single engine aircraft you will get injured.

I don’t understand why people don’t wear seatbelts. I don’t even notice it’s on me. Do they actually believe it’s statistically safer to not wear one?

Here’s another thing to ponder. Would you drive a passenger that refused to wear a seatbelt?

Yes, I do not like seatbelts, I don’t give a shit what you think about them.

Perhaps they would like to not die in an accident, take a flight though the windshield, or have the air bag explode into their face or experience a litany of other possibilities resulting from unsecured passengers in a moving vehicle coming to a stop in a fraction of a second.

Sure, whatever you say. They can do what they want, I do not like them and will never wear them.

I’d be more afraid of being paralyzed than dying in regards to not wearing a seatbelt.

You guys do you, but I feel for your families and the people that care about you if something does happen. But, as obstinate as you are being, maybe they don’t want you wearing seatbelts.

I’m pretty sure people on this forum don’t care what you do either. People are just sharing their experiences. They are just as valid as yours. When not wearing a seatbelt it’s probably a good idea to disable the airbags by pulling the fuse. Even a minor fender bender may cause a bad injury from the airbags. - They weren’t designed to work properly without seatbelts.

I must be missing something here? I don't recall you saying why you dislike wearing seatbelts. What is your reason for having such a dislike for them. Not trying to argue.......just trying to understand.

They annoy me, and they are useless….not needed

He does his own crash testing and safety research. I believe him.
Hey....is this RiptideHTC's second account by any chance? My spidy sense picks up a few similarities.

Are you really this bored?

Get a life and quit commenting on this over and over.

Probably not survivable without a seatbelt. The kid driving this was hanging unconscious by his belt when we got to him. This happened in front of my property 4 years ago.

Nope. I have had to put my foot down in the past due to this.
In addition to the safety, I'm not getting a ticket because of you.

Not if I have to listen to the chime over and over and over and over and over and over....
