Were the "safety equipment begets riskier activity" argument true, when we look back on driving cars in the 1950s -- back in the days of spear-you-through-the-chest steering columns and steel dashboards with big knobs that would smash your skull and no seatbelts so you'd go flying through the windshield or into the dashboard or get impaled on the steering column -- you would expect to see safer driving habits than you see now. And those of us who were there can tell you with authority, there was no such thing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
