on a politically correct note, I like the thread title being "short seat belt's" as opposed to "help with carrying severely obese people as passengers!"

A Shire Horse strapped into the passenger side front seat is unlikely to merit substantial compensation claims.

conservation of momentum........

the impulse will so great and you will be pushing the other car soooo fast in the opposite direction that the seat belts are unlikely to come into play.!!

Funny this , many years ago we got picked up by a private hire car to take us to the airport to go away ( Cuba I think ) and he was a big lad and used a piece of chain on a spring clip ( like a dog lead ) to clip onto his seatbelt to give the illusion it was on.
In your case ( you have an avant ) roll the fat fecker in the boot

You'll have to sling a 'Tarp' over the top and use a ratchet strap to tie the feckers down though, Plod might get a bit suspicious otherwise....

c'mon, what did you expect!?!?!?!

On a totally different tangent, actually going back to the original thread, we do manage and maintain a fleet of Mobility/Special Adadpted/Wheelchair Access etc etc vehicles and I could have given you a proper answer right at the beginning, but that's no fun is it!
