    The seat belt convincer is a self-propelled automobile seat with safety restraints affixed to a light-weight, easily maneuverable single-axle trailer. It is capable of simulating 5 to 7 mph crashes. The convincer allows the rider to experience the surprising amount of force generated by such a low speed collision and the benefit that a seat belt can provide.

    The rollover simulator is a compact pickup truck cab affixed to a two-axle low profile trailer. It features a single acceleration and positive braking control system to spin the cab, simulating a rollover crash. The simulator demonstrates the devastating consequences occupants face when ejected from a vehicle during a rollover.
