WEAR YOUR SEATBELTS

XtremeXteriors May 22, 2006 08:50 PM

These are the pictures I took of my parents rent-a-car THIS MORNING.Someone pulled out and T-Boned them so hard that they flipped over 3 times and landed on the roof of the car.My mother said "IF WE WERE NOT WEARING OUR SEATBELTS WE WOULD HAVE DIED WITHOUT A DOUBT" When I got to the scene 15 minutes later BOTH my parents were STILL hanging UPSIDE DOWN in the car by the seatbelts ,because if they didnt have them on BOTH their heads would have been crushed by the CONCRETE,GLASS,AND METAL.WEAR YOUR SEATBELTS

OH MY I must agree. As a vol firefighter me and my hubby can say that many injuries and of course deaths can be avoided buy just a second of time ti takes to click that belt. I sure hope all is well with your family.

Glad to hear they are ok after that.
And if they had not been wearing their seatbelts they would have been ejected for sure.

I responded to an accident not long ago. A compact car struck a bridge and slit totally in half!!! The only thing linking the two halves together was a seat belt!! Yes, they are that strong!!! Driver was unhurt
