Let us all remember that there is one person dead and another critically injured. Why must we bicker and fight over the importance of a seat belt when we should be sending our condolances to the family and prayers to the injured and dead. Let us remember that we are adult human beings and should act as such.

Well her husband was wearing his seatbelt, and he didn't make it either so maybe seatbelts aren't all that they are cracked up to be.

Yeah she should have been wearing a seatbelt, but she wasn't and who are you to judge the situation? Ashley was my friend and you could be a little more sensitive when you post a comment as rude as that was.
