Does anyone know if there is a plugin seatbelt bypass available?

I just bypass my body with the seatbelt. Run it behind the headrest and fasten it. Fast and free.

The seatbelt bypass is like $5 bucks, no reason not to do it. It makes it easy to use the seatbelt when you want to and not to use it when you don't.

I still see where some people fasten the seatbelt behind them so they can drive the machine without actually wearing it. So I thought I would bump this thread to let some of the newer people know these exist and work great.

Remember in wisconsin they passed a law that the belt has to be used or you may get a ticket.

This is a fair point. Once I installed the bypass, I find myself never using the seat belt, even when I should.

I always wear mine if I'm going very far (it's the law in Iowa as well) that said I don't mess with it if I'm just running down the street or driving around out at the farm.

They also make bypass devices for vehicles, just fyi. I haven’t worn a seat belt as a driver in over 30 years. I will wear one in respect, as a passenger in someone’s else’s vehicle.

I used to never wear a seat belt, when they passed the law I was pissed. I was voicing my opinion to an Iowa State Patrol officer at a training I was at when he made me think about it differently. Rather than debate me on the pros and cons of seat belt use he simply said:

"If you knew you were going to be in an accident the next time you drove on the highway, would you wear it or not?" "If your answer is yes, than the truth is you do believe they can help save your life"

Debate over, I quit trying to convince myself that I shouldn't wear one. I started using one that day and never even think about it anymore. Probably the only good habit I have.
