    thanks for answering...but i still dont see why...most people in a crash, especially high speed or a rollover, dont even have enough time to say "oh ****!", much less react quick enough to move their body to the left or right to avoid being crushed.....

    lolol *sigh* 3 point belts DO NOT hold you in place in serious accidents. That is a GOOD thing because without a cage a normal vehicle does crush on impact. The lap belts prior to the 80's injured people internals on impact so the 3 point was introduced enabling the impact to be absorbed over a larger area of the body...they are not meant to hold you in place securely like a race harness, it's just to prevent you from smashing your face into the steering wheel and windshield.
