really?
were they manufactured that way? or is it because they are older cars? or just cars with broken seatbelts that no one bothered to fix?
here in florida the seatbelt law only applies to cars manufactured after 1968. surely they can't have a law requiring seatbelts for cars that don't have them.

Hey, aren't you supposed to have been blown to Veracruz by now?
You can get coverage clear out on the debris?

Well, there's a bullet dodged.
Glad to hear. Scrunt would be lost without you. Making coffee that is never drunk; copies of his ass that are never seen; and surfing hours of porn on the internet without anyone to call him on it.
If the Gulf is hit hard, I'd keep an eye on George W.'s whereabouts - he is destructive.

the saftey standard of cars built for the chinese market are generally as low as you get
take this car for example which score a zero out of five safety rating.
But I don't know exactly why many cars-particularly taxis in china don't have seat belts. in my experience they seemed to have been either broken and useless, or stuffed underneath the seat covers making them inaccessible anyway. not wearing a seat belt is just part of the culture, and unfortunately its a hard habit to break.
