It should be a no-pay, no-play deal, like with insurance. You don't have to wear a seatbelt, but you shouldn't get to recover insurance proceeds or sue the other party if you are injured as a result.
this guy gets it.
don't take away the "choice". just let them know the consequences.

In addition, if no-seat-belt person is in an accident, anyone who walks up or shows up on the scene (police, paramedics, whomever) should be able to say, "oh, forget him, not a priority at all, no seat belt worn" ... and there should be zero consequences.
It does seem rather silly to me that there are states in which motorcycle riders do not have to wear helmets ... yet, there is a seat belt law.

Do you honestly think the trial lawyers would let this pass, not being able to collect damages from an insurance company for this reason? Never happen, so forget it. Check the stats out: no seat belt, no motor cycle helmet, your chances of being critically injured jump through the roof.
