Pees in the brown Koolaid
soberups,
Based upon your view of the car, what type of passenger restraint system would have been in the car if it is the type you have mentioned?
I realize this is only your opinion based upon the photo that has been posted.
Sincerely,
I
If I recall correctly, those cars came from the factory without a passenger seat. Instead there was a mounting bracket for a removeable seat that had its own lap belt. I think that they were subsequently upgraded with the installation of a permanent, non-removeable seat with a lap belt. There was no provision for a 3 point passenger belt on the older cars. The newer cars (post-1995) all come from the factory with a permanently mounted fold-up passenger seat and 3 point belt.
It would be ignorant of me to even speculate on whether or not the type of seatbelt had any bearing on the injuries suffered by the helper. I am not even certain that I am correct about the type of package car due to the poor quality of the photograph. I am pretty much speculating on everything at this point.
