As someone that's been thrown out of a truck and experienced the pleasure of flight for life, I'd recommend seatbelts.

Knew a guy in high school who was thrown out of a Bronco onto the pavement and killed on the interstate. I wear my seatbelt every time I get in a vehicle.

I Don’t wear sunscreen. Terrible for ya but love the feel of a burn. it’s one of the things I’m going to try to be better at on the back 40.
I’ve always worn seatbelts, but a few years back, I watched someone unbelted get thrown from their vehicle and die, I drug a tarp over their body so passer-bys wouldn’t have to see it, gave the Montana highway patrol a report of what I saw, got to the VFD and got a fire truck and went back up to the scene for 4 hours to do traffic control until at the end it was time to pull a hose and spray the evidence off of the interstate of what I had witnessed and faced earlier in the day.
Definitely enhanced my zealotry towards seatbelt use. Don’t really give a hoot what someone does on private property, but on public roads souls other than the departed will be cleaning up the mess.

Leash law. I hardly ever put my dog on a leash. I have one neighbor who gets all bent out of shape about it, and my dog is far more under control off leash than hers is on. She calls the HOA and the sheriff on a regular basis. Ring cameras are your friend.
