Re: Young Woman Killed in Carcrash - Thrown Out of the Car
No doubt that seatbelts save lives. If it was the case here, is hard to tell - after all, the driver was brought to hospital in coma, and if he wakes, he might find out, that his passenger is better off - or he might be able to live a decent normal life. I remember the discussion on seatbelts here from many years back, when the use was enforced. It was always the same from the opponents: They all knew an accident or two, where a victim survived because he or she was thrown out of the car. And they were mostly correct, but they sure had the statistics against them. Some time ago I posted a teenage girl drowned because she couldn't release her seatbelt - another version of the anti-seatbelt argument. But that isn't the typical accident. In most cases you would do much better with the belt than without it. |

Physically he might be fine but he will have this on his conscience for the rest of his life even though it wasn't his fault.

She must have taken flying lessons from the Greatest American Hero. " Believe it or not,* I'm walkin' on air,* I never thought I could feel so free;* Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer,* Who could it be?* Believe it or not, it's just me.*" |
