Teen is hassled by friends when he won't drive unless all passengers are buckled up

A young man described a viral encounter with two friends who refused to wear seat belts when he was driving — and what happened when he insisted they buckled up. Others on Reddit weighed in.

"My two other friends were also leaving as well and asked me if they could get a ride," he wrote on Reddit, describing the two friends as 18-year-old males.  "I said the obvious reasons: safety and I don't want [any] tickets if we happen to get pulled over."  He left the friends in "chilly weather, on a dark night. With a 20-minute walk home." "These guys aren’t worth your energy." Maureen Mackey is managing editor of lifestyle for Fox News Digital.

"I said sure. They all live within 1½ miles from our workplace (a 3-5 minute drive, a 15-20 minute walk), and they both live in separate houses at different ends of town," added "Flaky_Camp_706" on the subreddit known as AITA ("Am I the a--hole?").
