Why do wearing seat belts is necessary while driving a car?

It is always told to wear seat belts while driving a car. All the persons sitting inside the car are required to wear seat belts.

But WHY?

It is one of Newton's law of motion. 

It states that An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted by an outside force in the opposite direction. 

That means , if the car stops , we are still in motion. We will not stop suddenly. Seat belts will provide an external force which is required to stop our movement, thus save our lives by preventing us , hitting the front window shield.
