I tried this out on my daughter's new boyfriend without mentioning there was an airbag inside -- he clicked in the belt, and I hit the remote, BOOM... he lost it-- had to change his shorts before their date. True story.

Ford's new design featuring safety for down-syndrome drivers. To the right you can see the chief engineer explaining how to use it's patented new system, "if you see this this on your chest it means you press this button to call the insurance, and that button to call for help".
