My mom made my brother promise to wear his seatbelt. He didn't always wear one. He buckled in and two hours later, he rolled his pick up when he hit a deer. Not a scratch on him. Always buckles now.

Excellent. I've seen it before and it never loses its impact. Someone did a wonderful job of casting these three people. Thanks for posting it again.

Wow, very moving.
coming home from my sil on Christmas, a deer jumped out in front of us. Hit the brakes pretty hard. Husband and I wherein our seat belts...and I also had my 20 pound dog in his. I found this at the pet store and modified it for his size and how my car is built. If not for that, he would have probably had a broken neck.
make sure everyone you love is in a seat belt.

Thank you for this video. My little brother, age 31, was sitting in the back of a trailer his wife was pulling full of pickett fences. A piece of the pickett fence cracked off and hit him in the head, knocking him out of the trailer. He fell onto the highway at a speed of 60 mph. He broke his arm, neck, back and tore off a chunk of his liver. He was brain dead and my parents had him pulled off life support 2 days later. Whenever I travel into some parts of this country, in the rural areas, I still see people in the back of pickups. I want to tell them what happened to my brother and how it broke my mother's heart, as well as mine. Thanks again.
