Car Seat Belt Failure
There's
no question that seatbelts have saved the lives of hundreds
of thousands of injury victims. However, seatbelt malfunctions
or complete failures are far more frequent than you
might think.
While vehicle manufactures may use inferior techniques
in building many aspects of a car, there's simply
no excuse to skimp on the materials or design of the
seatbelt. In fact, most people would agree that the
seatbelt should be made more precisely than virtually
any other part of the vehicle. Unfortunately, that is
often not the case.
Even worse, when seatbelts malfunction in a wreck,
the resulting injuries can be more devastating than
had the victim not been wearing a seatbelt at all! Juries
across the country have listened to detailed explanations
of how seatbelts have failed during accidents and victims
have been awarded millions of dollars for the manufacturers'
mistakes.
