Safety Is Always Cool
As the wise pre-Kardashian Kanye West once said: “Thank God I wasn’t too cool for the safe belt.” There’s no such thing as being too cool for safety, and anyone who thinks otherwise is just setting themselves up for trouble. There’s no telling when you’ll get in a car accident and how severe it’ll be.
And just because you’re in the backseat doesn’t mean you’re safe, either. In fact, since most cars don’t come with backseat airbags, your only hope of making it out alive after an accident is by strapping up. Otherwise, you might just find yourself being catapulted through the front windshield.
