Little things like, oh I don't know, seat belts, air bags, and side curtains. Those safety devices do a fine job of reducing the risks of injury in the typical crash (75% of all crashes occur within 25 miles of home at speeds of 45 mph or less) I will, under no hesitation, call someone who does not use a practical availiable safety device a moron especially if there is no substitute
