Just imagine if they brought a law like that in these days. One lot would be claiming it was discrimination and refused to comply, another lot would be shouting it was the Government trying to control us and/ or that they were dangerous. Both lots would regret their decision when they hit the windscreen or the steering wheel and were either disfigured horribly for life or didn't live.

@airstrip1836 It would be alright if it was not law if anyone who got injured not wearing one had to pay the full cost of any hospital treatment etc. Might make people think?
