the belts in the passsenger seat are not locked either and I would not fancy one of them in the face in an accident. That is why forums like this are so good, aw well as the smack talk there is so much I have learned in the last year!

Oh brother...

You don't know how many students I have had that don't have sub belts. I make them wear their 3 point when I'm in the car.

I think the guy in the Exige should hang out with Lewis Hamilton and Princess Beatrice, maybe they can all learn how to put belts on together.

Damn, if I knew 4-point sternum belts were available, I would have got them instead.

Warning: This could be you!

I have stopped more than one Intermediate student with 4-pt belts on the same way.

Schroth makes some 4- pts that are okay in certain applications(vehicle specific).

I once had an instructor(an ITS instructor no less) that chose not to wear the shoulder belts, only the lap and 2 sub belts. Yeah... I don't know either.

At least he's not "shuffle-steering"!!!!!!

Just joshing.

I too have seen too many rice rocket racers without a sub belt. I don't get it. Can't they feel that that doesn't feel or look right.

The guy doesn't drive too well either. Clueless on many fronts.
