Glad to hear that you and Jan are in a bit better condition than the car. Hope everything gets sorted out for you.

Thanks Iain...bit sore at the moment. But Jan's more banged up than me. Her legs obviously got flung against the glove box as she has two nasty swellings under her knees and a swollen ankle.

I know seat belts are a life saver ....but the damage they do to the chest is quite significant.

Happy days.


Being ex ambulance service I've seen the damage seat belts can do but better some bruising or cracked ribs and being alive than the alternative.


I know it is a question of practicality but the four/five strap racing harnesses dont cause this damage in/after crashes. Maybe we need a newer design ?
