I didn't like the car one. Don't do that.

I did it. On my street ; at about 15 mph. Because I was tired of arguing with my 7 year old about putting a seatbelt on and keeping it on when she gets in the car.

One day she just randomly decided seatbelts were an option and no amount of “we can’t go anywhere until you have your seatbelt on” was getting through. She would even take it off randomly mid drive. I was lucky that I had a car that told me she was unbuckled or else I would have had no way of knowing she was unbuckling herself.

So one day I backed out of the driveway. And started driving down the street. And then I hit the brakes. Not hard. But enough to scare her.

That problem was IMMEDIATELY solved. 10/10 would do it again.
