What I found this week

You know nobody wants to be involved in an accident but Ford has introduce new technology for back seat passengers.  They have come out with the rear seat inflatable seatbelt.  This seat belt inflates slower that the front seat air bags and it uses a different inflation method.  The front seat air bags inflate using a warm chemical gas and the rear seatbelt inflates using a cold compressed gas.  This restraint is design to reduce neck, chest and head injuries.  Ford received the AJAC award for best new technology.  I found this to be interesting because I am thinking about buying a new car after graduation and I was leaning toward a foreign vehicle but now I will look at domestic.
