Problem is, the person who refuses to wear the seat belt isn't the only one affected by their decision. A driver thrown from a vehicle cannot continue to steer it or slam the brakes, so it may careen into a crowd. A passenger can be thrown into another passenger or the driver, causing further bodily harm to the other passenger(s), and having the same loss-of-control effect on the driver. Seat belts aren't just about YOUR safety. They're about EVERYONE'S safety.
