Hiya

So when are they going to make a car seat for us adults.. we dont deverve extra protection if we want it.?

We need cup holders and head rest when we fall asleep (when not driving) i want the 5 point harness i know it will secure me better in an accident and wont make the huge bruising and other problems with just a normal seat belt..

One day

It is possible to fit a 5 pnt harness in a car (if you have a full roll cage to attach it too.) but it is not as important for adult to have in normal conditions. The 5 pnt harness also makes driving more difficult as you can not move as easily.

With all the problems there are with people getting harnesses wrong on thier kids can you imagine all the issues we'd have with adults doing themselves? We have them in our street/strip car and believe me its a nightmare with passengers (esp. females)

Actually a 5 pnt harness causes bruising too. Sometimes worse. My brother got in a pretty bad accident with a 5 pnt harness and his neck was cut to pieces from the harness. Ejection is also a bigger problem as they have to fit a full size male and a small female which means the width is different person to person.

Dont most cars have cup holders? Mine daily driver doesnt but all the other cars we own do. (10 of them!!!)

How often do you sleep in the car? I dont ever sleep in the car so i dont know how necessary it would be.

I'll stick with my 3 pnt in my daily driver and 5 pnt for my race car when i'm doing 100+ mph.
