(One should always wear a seatbelt, but) If damaging property is already a civil crime, and harming people is already a criminal crime...are seatbelt laws necessary or are they mostly revenue generation for city, county, state governments?
Two issues.
The societal burden that comes from permanently injured persons from lack of seatbelt sneers to be considered. Second, children. The laws protect children too.
See, I'm 50/50 on this one. While I think it's a crime to make victimless crimes a crime. I wonder if, instead of laws about seatbelts, cars just had an annoying seatbelt alarm that couldn't be dismantled.
I wish we lived in a society that relied on parents and family to teach responsibility instead of whine for the govt to create a law that fixes nothing
