That makes sense, that way you wont be able to get shaken around as much
You also need to fit it correctly around your shoulders and legs. I'd expect the average person to have no fucking clue how to use them properly.
Unless you've practiced it thousands of times, it takes a while just to get them on. The trick is to practice it, time and time again, doing it the exact same way every time. This is especially important if you race with co-drivers that take over the car for part of the race. Those guys (and gals) tend to have it figured out pretty well. They've also practiced it over and over and over again.
They do want the driver to survive if they can help it
Yeah... If the safety record was like it used to be, we'd have outlawed racing. Professional racing used to lose so many people, like an average of one per week would die. Ain't no way we'd still have racing if that was still true.
