I think this is a cultural thing. In the UK, I would say more people automatically wear a seatbelt than for example Italy. I had an Italian friend who was in a crash where the car flipped but luckily his time in the UK ingrained in him that he should wear a seatbelt, even while riding in the back. On the other hand, he now uses this story to try to change the behaviour of his Italian compatriots who he says very often do not wear seatbelts while in the back of a car.
