I think laws do need to be put in place for things like this. I can remember 30 years ago or so in the UK, people used to drive around without seatbelts, children weren't strapped in, people had more children in the car than the number of seats (you could see this just by looking at the number of passengers in cars at that time). It was only after laws were made that people really took notice and started putting seat belts on. I was around 10 - 13 at the time, so when I started driving at 18, I didn't know know any difference and have always used a seat belt. I have always belted my children in because this was the norm for me and have never not done it. I would not even think of not putting a seatbelt on. Hopefully, given time things will be like that over here, people will automatically use seatbelts.
