Before the safety Nazis come after me, let me state that I always wear my seat belt.
In the South, the first thing I want to do when I get in the car is start the car and crank up the A/C. Then, I set up my cell phone and perhaps program in a destination. Then, I put on my sunglasses. Once all that is done, I put on my seatbelt and then drive off.
I don't like some stupid chime hectoring me to do something that I simply haven't gotten to yet in my pre-flight routine.
I don't want to hack the wiring in the buckle (like I did on my 2000 Ody, where you just had to unplug the buckle wire under the seat) because I don't want to cause issues elsewhere with the restraint system (airbags, pretensioners, etc.). Also a dummy seatbelt buckle won't work for the reason that I DO want to wear my seat belt, when I am good and ready.
