I was answering your point about "show me one instance, ever, > of a seat belt failing". Nice creative snipping there. You seem to have missed the part which included said failure changing the outcome for the patient. If a crash is intense enough to cause a seatbelt to fail, the fleshy person-type thing that the seatbelt was holding, will have fared much worse. A seatbelt, you see, is stronger than flesh. If the seatbelt is damaged, chances are pretty damn high that the flesh will not have done real well in that same crash. Maybe there are cases where a used junkyard seatbelt has failed where a used not-junkyard seatbelt would not have, but all I've seen on that is vague handwaving and theorizing. > There are instances. So you've said.
