    I’ve flipped two cars. The only injury I had from those two incidents was cutting my finger in safety glass due to my own stupidity. The major down side to seatbelts is that they are difficult to undo when your car is upside down. The benefit of seatbelts is that they let you complain on the Internet about how hard it is to undo your seatbelt when upside down.

      I read “flipped” as in “bought it cheap, fixed it up, sold it” and was mildly confused until I re-read it

      Because it makes me laugh, I may have been saved in a rollover because I was not wearing my seatbelt. My truck had Takata airbags, which I only know because after I rolled it I got the recall letter from ford letting me know. The recall is because they go off like a claymore and spray shrapnel.
