@ What's wrong with this? You can be seriously injured if you wear the shoulder belt under your arm. In crash, your a body would movetoo far forward, which would of increase the chance head and neck injury. Also, the belt would apply too much force to the ribs, which aren't as strongas shoulder bones. You could also severely injure internal organs like your liveror spleen.
