All the time. Except like sawdust, not in the back of the ambulance. You'd think as an EMT, I'd know better  :D .Sometimes it's impossible with all the things you're doing with a patient. You're up, you're down, and sometimes, all around. Although on a basic transport, I will "click it" . Delivering a baby, there's no seat belt in that position. Just put on the catchers mitt, and hold on.  :)

Tell your dad that, if he wants to see you become what you can become in life, put on his seat belt every trip.  Hard to break old habits and beliefs, but this small effort is worth it.
My father once said, "This is my son who wanted to grow up and become a doctor.  So far, he's only become a doctor."

I've told him. I can't keep mothering him about it. He almost drowned trying to save grandpa's life when he drove into a creek. If he was wearing a seatbelt, he'd be dead. But, that's not it. A cop was mean to him when he got caught, so now he won't wear it. Nothing I can do about it.

Thank you for the concern. Unfortunately, it has rubbed off on me and I only wear it half the time. Like father like son :D. Oops! Now I know the cops are gunna get us!   :-X :-X :-X
