Take for example Nils Bohlin, who inventee modern-day car seat belt &全 带）.Before 1959, only two -point seat belts were available, and the only people who often wore them were race car drivers. The two- point seat belt couldn t protect passengers from internal injufiesduring serious car accident

58、s.In 1958, Bohlin joined V olvo Car Corporation as a safety engineer. He came up with the three-point seat belt to keep passengers from flying out of their cars during collisions The three-point seat belt used one strap 带子）across the chest （胸部）and another across the legs and then the two joined at the same place. Amazingly, this was a very s
