I believe the fine in Texas is $135. for not wearing the seatbelt. I don't like do gooders telling others how to live. If you want not wear the belt it's not my business. Count the number of autos registered and the number of serious accidents and the % is quite low. How old are you? How many times has the seat belt saved you or your parents. How old is your house and how many times has it burnt down over the years? In most towns the houses are approaching 100 YO and still standing. Insurance lives on fear factor, what if, and they find every way to keep from paying. Figure up how much you pay out for all insurance over the last few years. Could pay your own accidents and damages except for the major ones. A friend was paying $700 a month for health insurance, WOW. -- Back to basic freedoms, tell me what is free anymore? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />-- no
