Seat Belts affect you

If you're a passenger in the back of a car, and the car stops suddenly in an accident, you will be launched into the seat in front of you. Drivers have died as the result of a rear passenger crushing them. Even seat belts can affect others.

This is why people really should wear seat belts in taxis and Ubers.

Arguably this should be worked out between the driver and passenger before the ride begins.

And for those who are unaware of the consequences? Do they just deserve to die?

We’re all on this road trip together.

"Are you happy risking death because I don't want to wear a seat belt?" doesn't seem like it needs much "working out".

Which would cause a ruckus in most of the cases. Not exactly what I as a driver, or I as a passenger, want when I think of a ride.
