You mean the seatbelt light that is sometimes on but mostly off?

There's some weird disconnect in this thread. People seem to be completely misinterpreting me at every step.

I agree with this. The seatbelt light is as anachronistic as the no-smoking light. They should just keep it on at all times. People obviously are still incorrectly interpreting "seatbelt light off" as "I should take my seatbelt off now."

The seatbelt sign tells you whether or not you are allowed to get up and move around. Unlike the no-smoking light it has actual informational content.
