The Ford Motor Company recently announced that they are going to put a new safety feature in their Explorers next year:
inflatable seat belts! The technology combines a regular seat belt with an airbag, and will increase the safety of backseat riders, particularly children and the elderly.
The new seat belts are wide and, according to test subjects, comfortable. When inflated, they distribute the impact over an area five times larger than traditional seat belts, which will lower the risk of serious injury substantially.
Yay for safety! Check out the video:
Interesting. What is going to protect the neck then?
