Quick question Google failed to answer for me.
Can I use a HANS type device just with a normal seatbelt?
Getting old and more safety conscious but I track my daily driver so buckets, cage and harnesses are a no go.
Physics wise it looks like it would still work just concerned I’m missing something?

Thanks for the input chaps. I did read on the Hans website that the neck collars are considered dangerous.

I’ll have a look at the Simpson one

I was more basically thinking of the device pivoting around the shoulder line so thinking the arms down the chest would stop it rotating down/ forwards, hadn’t considered the whole device just moving forward, doh!

It’s not a cost thing stopping me, as I said it’s for my daily driver/ family car, so cage, buckets, harness are a no go. The standard seats won’t work with a harness even if I could get an easily removable bar or something in there
