I did, still didn't read as though I was knocking seat belts. I installed modern-style retractable 3-point front seat belts in my Duster when I was 21 before taking it on a long road trip (I'm 32 as of April). Having an understanding of physics from school helped make me take crash safety very seriously, I've also always been very conscious of my own mortality. On that note in September 2021 I was rear-ended in my 1993 Jeep Cherokee by a kid in his early 20s not paying attention, he was going at least 35 mph while my car was stopped and the impulse force on my skinny 160-lb body was enough to bend the driver seat back to about a 45-degree angle from upright.
