Safety vs Freedom: Should Adults be Forced to Wear Seatbelts?

[a completely inoffensive name]

Seatbelts may make us safer.

Sasaki and Strike imo just struck down your entire argument already but this part I quoted is what I really facepalmed about. Don't justify your rhetoric by clouding the effectiveness of the "nanny state" you are railing against here. The science is proven, the math has been worked out, the tests have been numberless since the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety was formed. It saves lives period. Not a few, not a couple thousand at the expense of everyone's freedom, but tens of thousands yearly and millions since it was first introduced this is not arguable. It is not a "may" or "sometimes" it's the truth. I hate it when people shed doubt on established science and engineering simply to make their point seem more valid. And it always seems to be the right that does this.

Look at this friggen video, every single safety implement from 1959 to 2009 whether passive or active (requiring you to activate it, like seatbelts) is why the 1959 dummy is dead and the 2009 one isn't.
