from what the pictures show, I don't see how a Seat Belt would have saved you. Clearing the tractor may have been far better than riding it out. Belted in, arm caught under the tractor would have been far worse.
Tractor fatalities aren't about having an arm caught, they're about being crushed under the tractor's weight, etc. One lucky situation is not a poster for lack of general safety precautions like seatbelts.
