2:20:53: No safety belt! Though cars sold in the U.S. had to have safety belts beginning in 1968, most older models didn’t have them. Some people would even cut them out, feeling aggrieved that the government was trying to force something on them they didn’t want. As late as 1984, only 14% of Americans wore safety belts. Today the rate is slightly over 90%, though still less than other developed countries whose rates are nearly 100%. And the statistics bear it out. As seat belt use increased and air bags were added the rate of highway deaths as a percentage of the population went down, but nowhere as steeply as they have in countries with nearly universal seat belt use.

2:19:22: Anyone else recognize a young Jessica Walter, who played the lady who lunched Lucille Bluth on “Arrested Development”?

Only thing that sometimes gets to me is how they are reaching for women to be crazy and do senseless stuff in the script. Very telling of the era.
More accurate, now everything has to be stupid woke garbage on TV, the women is always right, innocent, stronger than the man, etc.
