Why aren’t car-like 3 point seatbelts used in planes?
In: 444
1.The ones they use now allow for quicker egress in case of an emergency. 2. Three points would have to be retractable or they would just be loose when a passenger is not using them making them pricier and high maintenance. 3 Three points take longer to secure in case of an emergency 4. The FAA would have to approve a change like this and it would cost the airlines money to convert every seat on every plane. (Airlines _hate_ spending money) TLDR If it ain’t broke don’t pay to have it replaced.
