I see.
Who said anything about disabling the SRS system? (Why do you CONSTANTLY do that? - put words in peoples mouths)
As Tob' rightfully points out side-airbags (which are part of the SRS system, btw) have merit/functionality that standard belts alone don't provide.
Milt, my cars with airbags also have significant belt tensioners. (which JO's car clearly did not have. ...and I don't know how tightly JO snugs his belts)
Point being, all but the freakiest front collision/accident scenario are handled as well by belts alone. --that is, for the belted occupant, airbags can actually/often cause more problems than they solve. (note: no more driving w/ hands at 10 and 2. ...bad bad bad...)

Nope. Just providing an option as well as the potential consequences for those who prefer not having a functioning SRS in their vehicle. If suggesting an option is "CONSTANTLY DOING THAT", then don't read the suggestions or the forum for various responses. If you want to see comments that only agree with your POV, do what you have to do to filter them out. Otherwise, move on.

Not sure where you're coming from to know when "belts alone" would be safest. This is speculation at best. What are you suggesting?
