Default Seat Belt Chime...

Okay so a "friend" taught me the process to deactivate the put on your seat belt warning.. It only took a couple of minutes, but I was wondering how many others knew the process.. I always wear my seat belt because I've totaled 3 cars in some pretty bad accidents I just didn't like hearing the warning.. I don't know if it would be ethical to post the procedure online, because we don't want to lose any of you guys, but I was wondering if most of you already knew about it?

+1, what's the procedure? It's people's own responsibility to buckle up.

You get in the car.
1. Ensure no one is in the passenger seat.
2. Turn the key to the run position, but do not start the car.
The next steps must be done quickly (some say under 60 seconds):
3. When the seat belt light illuminates, buckle the seat belt.
4. Then when the light goes out unbuckle it. (Keep the male end of the buckle in your hand, do not let it retract... unless you like a challenge)
5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 eight times I believe, but quickly.. (does it sounds like a joke yet?)
6. Then on the last time when you unbuckle the seat belt a short chime lets you know that the procedure was successful and the chime is disabled..
7. To turn the chime back on you have to repeat this procedure, but you must be naked.. )
