Re: mods for little people 700 90

Just thought I'd add my $.02. It's been mentioned several times in this thread that if there's no airbag, there's no problem. I disagree in that when a driver is seated very close to the steering wheel/dashboard, there's no room for them to move forward in a frontal collision as the seatbelts stretch (and yes they do stretch a bit). The driver then can't ride down all the collision forces via the belt, but strikes the interior of the vehicle. This can result in head/chest/leg injuries. Any modification that increases the distance between the driver and the steering wheel/dashboard, without compromising the ability to control the car, is probably good.
