The sensation that you feel when the car turns (and you feel pressed against the seat belt in the opposite direction) is caused by the change in direction of the seat belt and is not a force that is exerted by your body at all. It's the centripidal force that is pushing you into the same direction as the car.
Am I right?

YES!! YES!! YES!! Someone who actually understands why I have been harping and nagging, yes I said harping and nagging, about using correct terminalogy when discussing the rules.
Thank you Chuck. You have made my day.

I have made it a rule not to argue with you, Mark. It's like trying to teach a pig to sing. But I just gotta say, I think you're really being way too serious here. Just way, way, way too serious.

Never wrestle with a pig. It just makes you all sweaty and the pig likes it.
