[Back in Black]

I am on a hazardous road, or in heavy traffic, or other special circumstances...

I will wear them in my cobra, just cause they are the 5 pt style, I don't want to sit on them, and it is a high powered sports car, and I want to. It is no one else's business...and I would never want a taxpayer to pay for my medical costs...I am a classic Libertarian...I don't believe in the welfare state or handouts, I believe in personal accountability, and reaping what one sows.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have always worn a motorcycle helmet, full face, even before any helmet laws...but I am totally against helmet laws... a helmeted dork is gonna get in trouble/accidents, just the same as if he was helmetless...the same is true for seatbelts....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The point is that these *nanny state* laws are passed by little old lady types, and totalitarians who want to be *Big Brother or Sister*.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you really want safety....why aren't all drivers required to wear helmets? We know from statistics that most fatalities are from head injuries, belt or no...?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SOME drivers die IN THEIR seatbelts, hung upside down, unable to get out of them, and the car catches on fire or they drown in a body of water... well documented. Airbags and seatbelts can and do kill.

Brent:
I bought the WCC for of a multitude of factors, the main reason I wanted the spaceframe was the improved frame rigidity, but it is a bit safer in accidents too.
Be thankful that there is no federal legislation YET enacted, to force the "unsafe" kit cobras to conform to current DOT "safety" standards !
