I remember a time when the manager of a store was almost to work. He had an accident. Fire broke out. The man was strapped in his car with a seatbelt. Could not get it off. The man screaming from the pain , begging the sherriff to shoot him. The sherriff couldn't do it. The sherriff watched as the man litterally burn to death. That was about 32 years ago.

As far as tractor pulls go , I vote "NO" to seatbelts. If I remember right , the drivers of super-stock tractors wear seatbelts anyways , along with helmets.
