Only if you see the third one as true.
There are rare times when a seatbelt makes things worse rather than making them better (for example), but the benefits outweigh the risks enough to warrant making them mandatory.
"How dare you tell me to wear my seatbelt, my uncle was killed because he was wearing his seatbelt!"
Heck you can even find people publishing studies about the dangers and risks of wearing seat belts! Does that mean the issue isn't settled and there should be no law until every single person agrees?
Of course not.
Same thing with fluoridation.
