    Hardly ever. I mostly run at night, so I never got into the habit of wearing it. But once the sun comes up, depending on where I am, I'll sometimes wear it just so I'm not hassled.

    In my personal vehicles, I do wear them in the cars, only because they'll beep at you until you comply. My pickup I never wear it

    Depends on the situation. Heavy traffic on flat ground i got it on. In the mountains? Not a chance in heck, that's just one more thing to slow me down if i got to abandon ship.

    100% of the time going into a scale. Probably 10-20% of the time otherwise. Really depends on conditions

    Never. Why? No idea. It’s impossible to tell also with a w900 the way you sit and the small front window.
