Buckle Up
"I'm New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine, and I should be dead."Wow. That's an interesting way to start a PSA designed to encourage seat belt use. But I guess if there was anyone who knows first hand what happens when you don't wear a seat belt, it would be him. (Can he do a PSA about how you shouldn't ask your driver to break the law and go almost 30 miles per hour over the speed limit if it isn't an emergency next?)
I guess I shouldn't be so cynical. He almost died, and maybe he really did have an epiphany about safety. And, yes, I'm pretty sure he'll be wearing his seatbelt... for a while, at least. We can only hope he has become a physics lesson for those who think that seatbelts aren't necessary.
