    If I reclined the seat I wouldn’t be able to see out! I add a 2 inch cushion just to prevent the seatbelt from sliding up and crushing my windpipe. And I have to drive with my fingertips and toes to prevent the airbag from killing me.

    Why is everything designed for a 6 foot man when more than half of drivers who spend a lot of time on the road are women? Why has there not even been a proper female crash dummy? I drive a minivan because it’s adapted to my husband’s wheelchair. But even regular cars have similar misfits.
