Law Enforcement told us the same nine years ago. They said it was dangerous to be thrown and dangerous to be held immobile and have some object harm you...with no sides on the vehicle. A person was killed in that manner in Hadley last year sliding sideways into a car with his seatbelt holding him in place. Hard to know what to do.
