Can't resist this one. Simple fact is that seatbelts save lives.
First off you are a real saint for staying with the victim.
Here in Michigan we are required to wear them and I always do. This spring I got rear-ended while stopped in the road for a garbage truck and the pickup truck that hit me was doing 50mph in a 30mph zone. The impact was so severe that it broke the driver's seat in my 2004 Impala and totaled the car. The seatbelt sensor tightened the belt up to keep me in the seat during the accident. I didn't realize it until a day or so later but I had bruising in my ribs and chest area. I am convinced that the seatbelt saved me from serious injury.

People don't drive as cautiously today and most of them are on the phone. I think driving is more dangerous than ever before. I'll take an extra level of protection any day.
