People not wearing seatbelts unnecessarily binds medical personal and costs money in healthcare when there is an accident.

There is no rational reason of why someone should refuse to wear a seatbelt beyond "I just don't want to". It's different from more complex matters like being fat or not going to the dentist or whatever. And yes, there is actual research that shows that some behaviour is more complex than other behaviour.
