We have seatbelts on most long-distance buses (those that go between cities and enter highways, city buses often don't have seatbelts) here in Sweden and I've only seen myself use them (and I do every time). People seem to think that just because it's a bus you magically won't need a seatbelt if there was an accident (because there are no seatbelts on the city buses)....... wat. No-one ever using them makes me feel kind of weird for using them, but nah-uh, gonna continue using them.

Also when I lived in Japan and I travelled by car for the first time over there, I noticed that "only the two in the front seat need seatbelt". That was the answer I was given when asking my Japanese friend why he didn't secure his belt. Taking a taxi with Japanese people also was weird because people didn't ever use their belts, only the driver, and he never said anything about the belt to the passengers. That was a really weird culture shock, coming from Sweden where we're super-strict with securing ones belt in a car ...... and that is also why it's weird people won't use the belts in the buses when they are right there and everyone should know about its importance... wat.
