Try to explain to uneducated people what they are for.

I was somewhat successful with the family.

It's just fate, not anything to do with seatbelts, more than likely he forgot his lucky amulet at home.

Yeah, I consider myself lucky too, but it took a lot of times to explain the need and why. People here are really reluctant to what many others see as a totally normal thing.
