That's another thing to raise the cost of buying a car.

When I was a kid there were no seat belt laws. Actually, my dad used that to his advantage. When we started bickering and carrying on in the back seat my dad would hit the brakes and took advantage of the inertia to grab the first kid that flew towards the front of the car and make an example out of them.

Are we not forced to buy a car with air bags? Are we not forced to wear seat belts? You don't see it coming? Really?

Why not just hang the belt the opposite way so the kids swing inwards and away from the door???

Yah, that's cheaper.
You are refusing to understand to salvage your point (or lack thereof).
It's obvious and ignorant.

Maybe Ford could just make cars and trucks with all the gas caps on the same side, so we don't have to wonder what side its on when pulling up to the pump.

Now, you're talking. Same thing here.

My father did the same thing to us kids growing up.

Taught us RESPECT.

When we heard "Don't make me stop this car!"
we KNEW what that meant.

Straighten up, fly right and obey parental laws.

I think they should just make all cars fill up with packing peanuts on impact.

You seem ignorant of the fact that a person can buy a car without seatbelts or air bags.

Yes, yes. You keep making the same ignorant point. I heard you the first time so why are you reiterating the same stupid argument over and over? So, if we all throw logic out the window, which you have shown can be really easy, then the next time we endeavor to buy a vehicle we should get a custom vehicle to circumvent the seatbelt laws. How is that cheaper Einstein? I swear, you must be trolling. Nobody can be this thick. Is that you Leroy?

I think so... I mean my dad never slammed on the breaks in his car so he could grab and "make an example out of me." So i guess that makes me special.
