Motorcycles are much worse, why should you have to wear one in a car?
I don't wear a motorcycle in my car.

HURR DURR THE GOV'T SAYS IT SAVES LIVES! They've spent millions of your money on commercials and signs and laws. Be a good goyim!
Growing up, though I'm older (but you're no spring chicken I don't think), we never thought twice about it, would've ruined the road trip.
On a motorcycle you’re so exposed you’re better off being able to separate yourself from the vehicle if it gets into a tumble. Being strapped to it would only let it batter you or lay on top of you.
The motorcycle is one of those things that would never be allowed to be sold commercially if it were invented today. We only have them because we accepted their enormous dangers back in braver times and we would all raise a huge fuss if someone tried to get rid of them now.
The amount of mental gymnastics in your response is insane.
It's simple. The equivalent of a seatbelt in a motorcycle is the protective gear. Shoulderpads, kneepads, elbowpads, and of course the helmet. The type of moron who drives around without wearing their seatbelt is the same type of moron who rides a motorcycle without a helmet. Case closed.
Besides, my buddy just told me last week about new protective gear for bikers. It's basically a Michelin Man tire suit that inflates when the pullcord gets separated from the bike. Crash tested up to 80 MPH you just bounce like a marshmallow.
But that may not be correct, many fatalities are from being thrown from the car I hear. But then, that would mean they weren't wearing seatbelts, and most people likely do. So maybe you're right.
My brother was in a suburban with a bunch of drunk Mexicans and they rolled it, he was thrown and hit his head on some concrete. There was blood leaking into his casket by his head, stupid funeral home people.
The truck driver who witnessed the accident said he saw person after person being thrown as it rolled, he pulled over and sat sick to his stomach for a while.
Because they'd be more dangerous there. Your completely exposed body would be latched onto a multi-hundred pound piece of metal. 18 states require helmets, which should be standard.
