The only way to keep that light off is to keep your belt on. I believe it's a federal offense to tamper with that light as it's required by the government on all cars sold and driven in the US.

Like Jrock said... most accidents occur close to the home... no matter where you are you should have your belt on....

i think there is a way.

just find a wrecked cl or tl or any honda/acura that uses the same seatbelt harness and just cut it off and just snap it into your seatbelt buckle...

but i would recommend just wearing your seatbelt...

Just find something to run into.
Your HEAD bouncing off the dashboard should do the trick on that pesky light.

yeah like everyone is saying.. Just wear your fucking seatbelt. We'd all hate to see a member die because of something so stupid.

being a firefighter I often can tell by the shape the person is in if they wore their seat belt.
I had a friend in high school that I think he had been drinking(I would have stopped him from driving but I didn't know about it until after it happened) it was about 2 or 3 A.M.he had to take his friend home and he was late getting them home so they got in his dad's V-6 Accord his missed a curve at 115 MPH(rolled the Accord like 8 times) he dead on arrival. The kid riding with him they said the only reason he lived(which they had to take by chopper hospital cause he was so messed up) cause he was wearing his seat belt. Wes(the one that died) didn't have on his seatbelt.
I know your saying well I normally don't drive 115 MPH. I don't care if your a old fart that pokes on the road PLEASE wear your seat belt. you don't when something will run out in front of you or that guy in front of you might slam on his brakes. remember it's better to be safe than sorry

Yeah, it's SO F*CKING HARD to have that thing go across your body, grasping you down with that 2 ounces of force!!111


You're a big moron if you don't wear your seat belt, and that's the end of it. If you die or are horribly maimed when a oblivious soccer mom runs into you with her Dodge Caravan, I will be only this sad for you:

So rock on with your Darwinian self.

I have to agree with this one.
I wear my seatbelt just in case the OTHER guy is going 115 mph when he flips his car in front of me.
