Gov. Corzine was not wearing a seat belt :(

For those who haven't heard, it has now been confirmed that Gov. Corzine's vehicle was traveling 91 MPH on a road with a speed limit of 65. A state trooper was behind the wheel. Why did he think he didn't need to obey the speed limit like everyone else and why did he allow the governor to ride without a seat belt? As much as I feel sorry for the governor, this may have all been avoided if the two of them were behaving as the rest of the public is expected to behave.

Guess I must say I'm not surprised they feel they are "above the law".

I ALWAYS wear my seatbelt, as does every member of my family. It is just habit for me and for them. That is what we do. But I find myself looking at people who have not strapped in, or have not properly restrained their children, when I am at red lights.

If I am killed in an accident, wearing my seatbelt, then I feel it was meant to be. And I am not likely to ever give it up for the unlikely event that I would have been better off without it.

This speeding (91 mph) thing blows my mind.
