Likewise, they should lose any assistance in paying any medical debt they incur, and such debt should likewise be rendered impervious to bankruptcy a la student loan debt. I'd even consider denying them the ability to sue if their injuries result from an accident caused by someone else.

If someone makes the deliberate choice to forgo seat belts, they should bear the full, crushing responsibility of that choice.
