I feel naked if I don’t click that seat belt.

Wow.
My kids get on my case if I’m not wearing mine, so we’re good here,
but man that is scary.

Supervising the use of a large Vermeer Rock Wheel yesterday, heard a
noise from the street, looked over and saw a minivan airborne.
Rotating in all possible axes (axes is the proper plural of axis, I
actually looked it up). Watching for people to come flying out of
the vehicle, I was dialing 911 while trying to cross a very busy
street. Van came to a rest on its side. A man and his daughter came
climbing out the back window.
Superficial scratches. Shaken up, but largely unharmed. They had
mounted the curb and hit a fire hydrant. The hydrant came to rest
half way from where it was originally and where the car came to rest.
Quite a scene normally seen in movies. End over end, spinning and
rolling. It must have been 6’ off the ground when I first saw it.
I feared the worst. For a time I was an EMT when I was young. Glad
to have had the training, did not like being an EMT.
I would say seat belts saved them from certain critical injury and
most likely death.
Hope everyone always wears their seat belts.
My wife is still with me due to wearing hers.
