      Oh god yes. They all literally invented a fake illness called “seat belt burn.” I kid you not. And this was the 80s before commercial Internet, so it spread organically.

      My mother in law would complain about wearing one while I was driving her around, so I’d just refuse to move the car until she either got out or put the seatbelt on. She wears it without complaining now. I give no fucks if people like wearing it or not, when they’re in my car, I’m responsible for their safety and I won’t have their blood on my hands because they think it’ll never happen to them.
