Every thread about seat belts seems to attract at least one person either explicitly or implicitly arguing that no seat belts is safer than seat belts attached to the frame. I would like to see these people produce actual evidence instead of speculative ideas of physics. If you have seen actual accidents, what were the injuries? Were there belts and how were they designed? Was the body separated from the frame entirely or partially, and where?

This kind of theorizing has real-world consequences.
