So it isn’t suitable for “ordinary” cars, only race cars? I don’t see many V70’s or S80’s flying around Silverstone.

The force when a belt snaps is huge. I can’t see how that metal will do anything & it hasn’t been proven to work either. If it did, I’m sure Volvo would have come up with a solution via recall.
