a few months ago, but 4got 2 mension it 2 u all.
basically my house it on a long bend that has a tightish bit in the middle that always catchs people out, cars end up in the hedge all the time! (40mph limit on the road)
one morning this guy went round it about 60-70 overtaking a lorry, lost control and flipped the car into the field at the side, he wasn't wearing his seatbelt and who thrown through the roof and landed in the field away from the car - he died of head injuries 
the police had the car on display at weston wheels (with permission of the family) on their stand.
just thought i'd share it with u all.

Thats pretty crazy
We should collect all the cars that have smashed through our wall and put on a similar dispaly... We would have about 6 or 7 on display... Luckily we put rocks out to write the car off by smashing the sump and floorpan up before it its our wall now.

Why do people not wear seatbelts.
Its hard to feel sorry for them.
Fair enough we all make mistakes etc and i've done it myself but I never get in a car without my seatbelt on.

I rolled my first car, if it wasnt for my seat belt i'd prob be a gonna as i'd in the middle of the road or half my body would prob be outside the car as it rolled.
The seatbelt marks were painful but saved my life.
You dont expect to crash but its the unexpected that catches you out!

Thats just asking people to go faster tbh.
People will see if they can set it off as opposed to actually slowing down.
