The 100 km/h clearly show you understood nothing.
Also I highly doubt medical costs would explode. Only a tiny fraction would not wear seat belts and only a fraction of them would be involved in accidents. And for those the probability of a life long injury might not even change. Why would the probability of landing in the narrow band between death and life long injury increase? Why wouldn't the cost instead decrease from more people dying? Why would there be...
Why the heck am I even trying. You clearly understood nothing and narrow minded people are not worthy of such efforts. Enjoy living in a society that controls your life more than any regime in history has. But hey, at least no one has a psychological trauma.

Meat, all of your arguments would be far more convincing if you had, say, a Black Adder avatar. Just sayin'.

Oh yeah, because cats can't be pissed of with having to support all the weak, stupid and unemployed people in society for which they are thanked by being controlled all day and forced into the tiny lame-ass, and mind numbing existence of a nice, productive and of course consuming member of an equal, fair and solidary community. Even though that cat is so awesome, cute, sly or just plain cat-ish that it deserves to stand above all that shit and purr happily as it becomes the Über-cat. Is that so?
Well, fine then...

You know that the cat will return, don't you?

Of course I do.
However, every post you make, I read in my head with Black Adder's voice, and nuances.
Sometimes, I just need a little bit of reminding. It keeps me sane, and keeps you awesome.
Don't fight it.

Oh please, ease off with your liberal German bullshit.
Eddie gave you a perfectly sound explanation which you felt was rubbish because you apparently feel oppressed and deep down want to be more like your Dutch cousins.
We have rules and regulations for a reason, in no small part because most of the populace needs protection from themselves, as condescending and pessimistic as that sounds. There's those of us who do things for the greater good of others, than there's other selfish rabble like yourself that looks at yourself first. Please.
Also I'm slightly drunk. Fuck you

If I was the Oberstufuhrer, that would land you 3 weeks in the cooler.

But apart from that I guess you're mostly right. I do feel oppressed, I want to smoke pot, regulations protect the weak and stupid and I'm an ass who wants to give them the finger. And yes, the world should be shaped in a way that does not benefit the "greater good" but me. Everyone thinks so, they are just too hypocritical to admit it.
Is that called German liberalism?
Maybe the seat belt example was not the best. What I really had on my mind was some German politician's idea to make helmets obligatory when cycling, which fucking pissed me off. But I didn't want to bring up local politics.
