[0:00]Are you one of these who only chooses to wear a seatbelt when you're driving fast on the freeway? Like if you're going below 30 miles an hour, no, it's not fast enough, I don't need it. Excuse me? You know Usain Bolt, the world record holder in the 100 meter dash? Do you know what his top speed is? About 25 miles an hour. Here's what you do, go up to him and say, I'm going to put a brick wall at the end of your 100 meters, don't slow down, just keep running face first and tell me what happens. He'll look at you like, what, are you an idiot? What, okay, that's exactly what will happen to you. If you're in a car not wearing a seatbelt, going 25 miles an hour, and the car goes head first into a brick wall. You keep going, the car stops, but you don't. You keep going, and your face breaks the windshield. That's why there is no speed where where it isn't safe to wear a seatbelt.

Always wear your seatbelt for safety #neildegrassetyson #seatbelts #seatbeltssavelives
