T The main issue I see with a using a cage in a road isn't lack of padding (as you point out common sense says you put in padding), but used with retractable belts they prevent the car crumpling to absorb an impact as well as reducing the space that the retractable belts have to reduce the momentum of your body. Its a bit like using harnesses with out a cage, retractables are much safer as they slow your body gradually. Harnesses are only really designed to prevent most of your body movement (they will stretch in a crash) so you don't hit the cage. Callum [Report message to a moderator]
