"Well I dont want those awful scars on me, so I won't wear a seatbelt then!

My 2nd youngest brother was saved by his seat best in the fact it pinned him to his seat so tight he was unable to move which was good because he was in a head on collision which pushed the engine into the front seat.
It legit was sitting right next to him and less than one inch from him.
The emergency crew said if he had a lose seat belt he would of been tossed around in the van and the engine would of hit him and crushed him to death.
He ended up with a bruise from the seat belt and he busted his nose on the air bag which deployed AFTER the crash not on impact like it should of. He also had wipelash and a few cracked ribs.
Honestly he was lucky.
We were super glad it happen AFTER he dropped our mom off at work. So she wasn’t in the van.
She was rather large and had a habit of not wearing a seatbelt and she would of been where the engine ended up.

Let me preface this by saying I am 100% in support of seatbelt usage. It's just one of those fluke happenings and definitely not an argument against seatbelt usage.
Years ago, my drunk idiot of a friend, was driving his VW bug, when he lost control and struck a tree. He wasn't wearing a seatbelt and was thrown clear of the car, luckily not into traffic. He ended up wearing a full leg cast for the summer but miraculously managed to dodge the steering column, which had pushed his seat into the back of the car. Had he stayed in the car, he probably would have fared a lot worse than a leg injury.
