"Here we report a 49-year-old man without any underlying disease, which has instantly died in an accident scene due to compression of neck critical elements by a three-point seat belt."

"Generally, a safety belt is essential during driving and often decreases the mortality rate of the passengers up to 50-75%."

Whaaaaat? Seat belts are only 50 to 75% effective? And they are responsible for actually killing people?

I'm never wearing mine again.

And screw those commies who want to take away my rights by giving me a ticket for not doing so!

The quote you reference says that seat belts
often decrease the mortality rate up to 50-75%.
Then you conclude that seat belts are only 50 to 75% effective.
You seem like a clueless dolt.
