Sen. Markwayne Mullin said he does not wear a seat belt in Washington D.C.

Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma indicated that he does not wear a seat belt while driving in Washington, D.C., because he wouldn’t want to be “stuck” in the event of a carjacking.

“And by the way, I’m not joking when I say this: I drive around in Washington D.C. in my Jeep … and I don’t buckle up,” Mullin said.

He made the comments during an appearance on the Wednesday episode of Fox News Channel’s “The Ingraham Angle,” which was guest hosted by Brian Kilmeade.

“And I wear my seat belt all the time, but in Washington D.C., I do not because it is so prevalent of carjacking,” he said.
