To those who still oppose seat belt laws and may use as a final argument that:

	People have been killed because they were trapped in the seat belt.

This will not be true anymore for the most part.  New cars such as my '85 Mitsu-
bishi Starion and others have TWO seat belt releases: the traditional one that
is used to buckle up and AN EMERGENCY RELEASE where on my car since the seat 
belt is contained in the door the EM release is at the top restraint on the 
belt above my shoulder.  By using this release (EM rescuers are clearly able to
see this bright red botton with EMERGENCY BELT RELEASE written on it) the belt
could be thrown back towards the middle of the car and the person pulled out 
the side.
