It is incredible. All family members likely would have been fine had they been wearing seatbelts.

I think this is the take away from this tragedy.

Why is everyone talking about the ticket? Who really cares? There are five dead people in one family because no one was wearing seatbelts. The car did its job correctly. The passenger compartment was fine.

The take home message is not that some kid was given a ticket after a wreck killed five family members. The take home is simply that wearing seatbelts probably would have allowed everyone to survive if not walk away from that wreck.

After the fact, yes. Before the fact, no parent should put that kind of responsibility on a 16 year-old. I wouldn't and hopefully neither would you.
