Re: New Cars With Lap Belts Slammed

Lap belts are stupid, and there's no way it would cost $1500 to $2000 to equip them with a 3 point in the center seat. But even 3 point seat belts don't do the trick in side impacts. Just lean sideways to see how they do very little to prevent your body from smashing into a window or the person next to you, although I'm sure pretensioners reduce this problem. I honestly don't think it will be very long until we see 4 point belts in mainstream vehicles.
