I'm doing some research for an article. Here's the question:
Have you personally, or do you personally know someone who has, been in a significant frontal collision, side collision (t-bone), or rollover in a Jeep Wrangler (on or off road), AND, what were the restraint and safety systems in use?
Please indicate all that apply. My goal is to learn more about the restraint systems and how they come into play in an accident in the real world.
It'll also be interesting for others to see the raw info. Please do not provide opinion as to what is safe/not safe or links to other articles, stories, or posts about this topic. I don't want to clutter with stuff we can find everywhere else. What is hard to find, surprisingly, are actual stories of people who have been through an event.
1. On Road
2. Off-Road
3. Frontal collision (over 30 mph)
4. Rollover
5. Side collision
A. Factory Seat Belt (3-point harness)
B. 4 Point Harness
C. 5 Point Harness
D. 6 Point Harness
E. No supplemental roll cage or harness bar
F. Harness Bar
G. Supplemental (aftermarket Roll Cage (of any type)
H. Air bags deployed
I. Helmet in use
J. HANS device in use
K. Other stuff that's relevant (please explain).
I'd love to also hear your story (and frankly that's part of the point) and any details about injuries or noteworthy info.
Thanks!!! Hopefully people will help, otherwise this thread will just fade away... lol
