Short version - August, 1980 in Houston. I was driving a VW Rabbit, don't remember what year model.
I was the third car in line at a stop light. Got rear-ended by a 1ton Chevy van. He hit me so hard I went into the car in front of me which was a 1980 Grand Prix (land barge). I hit her so hard she broke the windshield with her head (she didn't have her seat belt on). She hit the pick up in front of her and knocked him into the intersection.
At that time, VW was one of the few vehicles with the modern shoulder strap/seat belt combo.
I had it on. When they got the door open on my now super sub-compact VW, I walked away.
I do have permanent damage in my neck, but hey, what's a headache every now and then compared to what would have been if I didn't have my seat belt on.
