Do you put your seatbelt on before or after you start the car?

Depends.

I grew up without seatbelts so sometimes I still forget until my vehicle starts yelling at me.

After, because it’s hard to get the key out of my pocket with the seatbelt on.

I don’t. The other mkt time I wear a seatbelt is when the doors are off the Jeep.

Typically after… It's an old habit because growing up in Alabama the first thing I wanted to do was get the car going so that the air conditioner was going or the heater depending on the season but the air conditioner was far more important usually! 😂

Absolutely.
When my daughter was a toddler, she would say “turn air dish on.” It was already on, but as you know it takes a few minutes for it to make any impact in the heat.

It demon if I don’t want to hear the beeping or if I’m in a hurry and put it on while I’m pulling out.

Yes... Depends on my mindset at the time. Kids...before usually. Am I in a hurry...as I am driving out the driveway.

After, if at all. I only wear it about 25% of the time if that. Bad habit, I know.

After. Doing it before would be wasteful.

After IF I wear the belt. Calm down, I don’t wear it at all on property, I’m not wearing it to go across pasture or down through the bottom.

After. Most of the year here you need to get the air conditioner going as soon as you get in the car and start it.
