I feel very uncomfortable without using a seat belt. In

I feel very uncomfortable without using a seat belt. In Germany the fee is 850RMB and you get 2 points (There is a list which violation is worth how many points, at 18pts. you lose your licence and have to renew it with psychological and physological control. Speeding more than 20km/h in the city is 1pt, a tire without profile is 3pt and 800RMB (I know that for sure!!!) and so on)

In Italy the people feel the same. Since they are not on the motorway the don't use it. Kids are climbing around in the car and as soon as they leave the motorway they get rid of the belt.

If you go on 'walkspeed' you can already breake your arms if you come to a immidiate stop and try to avoid get hit your head against the front shield. If you're going 30km/h you can already be dealdy injured.

In Germany I even fasten my seatblet when driving the car 20m into my garage. I am just used to it! And I am glad about that habtit!

Best regards,

Christof!
