After the law was passed here you could still see quite a few people driving around without belt in pure spite. Even those who had previously been known to use them. But as police started enforcing the law, more and more people gave in. Now the time is ripe for a belt law applying to the backseat passengers as well. How would you feel about a law requiring dipped headlights day and night, all year? We have that. Leif Samuelsson ..{decvax, philabs}!mcvax!enea!erix!leif
