How can people be so dumb as not to wear seat belts.
They’re lazy and irresponsible by nature, and they don’t care.
Because dumb people think that they have enough time to put their seatbelt on a split second just before getting into a traffic collision.
AGAIN not wearing a seat belt idiots
Was grabbing my purse from behind me I was in the passenger seat not an idiot didn’t expect for us to get cut off !
No one expects to be cut off or involved in a crash. That’s why we prepare for the unexpected…. By using things like seat belts…….
Someone didn’t stop when they were supposed to either. Everyone’s in a hurry.
Any update on the passenger that was airlifted?
Any word on how the person that was airlifted is doing?
