Why you should wear a seatbelt!
 
Long story short.

-Person loses control of car
-Car goes off 8-10ft embankment
-Lands in persons driveway and smashes into their parked car
-Celica flips over.

If you are on here, I pray to god you are okay.

It appears the person was not wearing their seatbelt. Looking at the passenger compartment they would have been fine if they were.

that the one with lambo doors?

Scapegoat 01-18-2010 08:52 PM

i understand why you're posting this. and i always where my seatbelt b/c it does save lives... but i don't think it is your business to be posting these pictures on the forum.

i'm honestly not sure if i'd be upset or not if they were of my car, which is why i bring it up.

but yeah... wear your seatbelt

martang 01-18-2010 09:15 PM

I doubt they are on the forums because the car is clearly stock. Well now I know how my car will hold up if I decide to drive it off a 10 ft cliff lol

I would think heads hitting a windshield would produce quite a bit more blood (and brain/skull matter) than that....

03MSP 01-18-2010 09:35 PM

my brother and his wife both hit their heads of my bros windshield... spider webs in both spots but there was no blood.. this could have been much worse though

The car is now the insurance companys, plus its no different than taking pics of a car in the junk yard. I never posted the persons name. My guess is the person bounced around the car, there is blood everywhere. Headliner, back seat, dash, door panels ect.

i'm not going to say anything... just quoting for posterity

i know way to many drunken rednecks that would be dead if they wore seatbelts... so im still on the ropes of whats better... in serious accidents its really like a 45% chance it will help but how about all those times when the drivers cabin is destroyed and the drunk guy is layin 150ft away still laughin about his crazy ride...

Scapegoat 01-18-2010 11:52 PM

i really don't think you should be considering the habits of drunk drivers when pondering over whether or not to wear a seatbelt...

explain further more, but i dont see what differance it makes, drunk or sober and seat belt or no seat belt. no two accidents are the same so the varibles in a given situation will allways be differant. also common sense dose play a big factor ie; being responisbile and wearing it, and not driving drunk, but again, accidents happen and the situation will allways be differant

Scapegoat 01-19-2010 12:07 AM

i'd rather have my seatbelt on instead of having my fingers crossed that i'll be safely ejected from the car. the reason drunks get away with it more often than sober people is because they're all loosy goosy from the booze.

besides... a seatbelt in a minor accident is going to save you from getting ****ed up by the airbag

DPancoast 01-19-2010 01:34 AM

holy crap... thats a little crazy
