For what it's worth, I was at the junkyard this weekend helping dad get
some parts for his Dodge. There was a 78 MGB that had been in a head-on
with a mini-van. The driver, a 17 year old, had immediately died. He
was killed when he hit a nearby tree.
I always wear my seat belt, but I'm honest about it. If I wreck the MGB
and it's my time to go, no seat belt or airbag is gonna save me.
