My Invention, What Do You Think?

A thought came to me the other day while thinking.

A way to improve our seatbelt system, is to have a jacket that its back is made of a special kind of magnet intertwined with the fabric, or you could use velcro. This jacket can be taken off the seat and you could wear it with you (I don't think you would want to though. You would be pretty well attached to the seat and would not be able to reach out for your phone/food/etc. so you would not be distracted, while driving.

Or another way, is to have a special fabric that is the magnet fabric or is the velcro, and attach that special fabric to whatever you are wearing at the moment (if anything.

WOW thats a great idea!! You're a freaking genious!!

What is your opinion, is it a good idea or bad?? What is your suggestion for improvement?

What makes you think people will use that invention. I mean some people are too lazy to even use the seatbelt.

I think ideally it would be a very effective way to prevent injury, but it sounds like a little bit of a hastle. it would have to release easily so that in case of an emergency, the passengers could escape easily.

good idea, but im sure only safty casuses people would use em, like me!!

o ya, i JUST got my permet 3 HOURES ago im ganna be hitting the road soon with a "trainer"

damn i swore to god that i fialed it when i was standing in line! it was mutch harder then i thoughet!!

That'd be hell, wearing a jacket in the summer

The velcro wouldn't strong enough to hold a person in a 100 km/h collision. The magnetic field may cause some problem with pacemakers. I assume you want to have a fiber that is attracted to a electromagnetic in the chair, but otherwise you wouldn't be able to get out the chair. I think running an electromagnet would cost a lot of energy.

Everything considered, I think the current seatbelts are the most cheap and efficient solution.

or instead of a seatbelt or nething, why not just attach a series of removable adjustable strips to ur body the expand into super boyant and bouncy and flexible and good for u balloon thingies, and also make it deploy a hard steel cushioned lined helmet onto ur head, so when u fly through the window u wont hurt urself, then the balloons will expand floating or bouncing u to safety. .

I just came back from the DMV, to get my license

Thats so good....i may have to steal it

My husband just got his invention patented (which I HIGHLY recommend you do). A company is really looking forward to producing his 'idea' which will make him lot's of money...


Go get that patented!!!!!

And by the way,
