What a shame! My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. 💐
What is WRONG with these kids ? No seat belt? Even an old timer like me wears them… What a shame, very pretty girl…R.I.P. Ms Dee.
So sorry. Hoping that Dee is with the Lord.
Sorry! That’s the end of her career and life all because of refusing to use a 2″ nylon strap that’s proven to save your butt in most situations. For whatever reason doesn’t matter now.
Seatbelts do work! Wear Them! You can’t react fast enough in those situations. Good chance she would have made it if she had seatbelt on. Seatbelt keeps you in steel, glass armored egg (vehicle). It’s a lot tougher than your squishy body hitting anything inside or out side the car. You are the weakest link in the situation.
Your just a Humpty Dumpty and break easy. Where they may not be able to put you back together again as in this situation. I know several people who died or were crushed from NOT wearing seatbelts on tractors, forklifts. They would have been fine if they had just bothered to wear it. Please wear you seat belts. That “IT won’t happen to me” attitude is total BS. It CAN and DOES everyday. Stay Safe!
POA when your time comes seat belts will not save you. thank God for each day
