Unfortunately, that's a standardized thing because of safety laws.
Even if your commute is only 3 minutes and you drive less than 25 mph, it's best to put it on. You never know what might happen; "ounce of prevention > pound of cure."
Or you can go for a walk. 3 minutes at 25 mph is 1.25 miles. You can burn an extra 300 calories a day just walking that...
