Show & Tell: Unnecessary Process

I came across this process while searching through the database at eHow.com. It's a three-step process for fastening a seat belt in a car. I feel that any child over the age of 5 who has ever ridden in a vehicle has had their seat belt buckled for them by their parents and have then learned by example. The written out instructions seem pointless to me. Buckling my seat belt is second nature to me and goes hand-in-hand with starting the engine, but I digress...

Here are the steps:
Step 1 - Sit in the seat of your car and adjust it so that you are comfortable. Usually the adjustments for car seats are underneath the front or on the side. Raise, lower or slide the seat to your desired position.

Step 2 - Pull the seat belt out from its holder. Seat belts are on a track, which automatically tightens part of the strap against your body. Pull the seat belt out far enough so that it can reach across your waist toward the receiving end of the belt.

Step 3 - Push the male end of the seat belt into the female end until you here a "click." At which point you can release the seat belt. The excess slack should automatically tighten back into the seat belt holder.
