The three-point safety belt was invented by Volvo in 1959 who were so confident it would make a major contribution to saving lives they refused to patent it, allowing other manufacturers to benefit from the technology. In the following half a century it is estimated that one million people are alive today because of the humble seatbelt.
good on Volvo! Pity other companies cannot be so forward thinking and generously minded!
