I think that is a bad idea. Letting go of the steering wheel, and throwing yourself on the seat is giving up the control that might save your life. "The price...
Yeah, but, if you see the inevitable, it just may save your life. I've seen a number of people crushed by steering wheels and who knows but that throwing...

sure Bill. That's definately something to consider...
Insurance companies claim that SBs cause less injuries and save them money, etc. Lets assume that's true for the sake of argument. So why not add an optional...
