There is a difference between laws that protect others from you vs a law that is to protect you from yourself.
I believe seatbelts offer some protection in a crash and are good to have in vehicles but I am very opposed to laws requiring their use.
Sadly the Iowa State Patrol would rather give seat belt tickets than do anything else that might actually make the highways safer.
You know, things like enforce speed limits, stop signs, reckless driving, drunk driving, no drivers license, etc.
They should be renamed the Iowa Seat Belt Patrol and have their budget cut in half.
