Narrative

We had a disturbing incident of my 16 year old son getting stuck and twisted in seat belt on a long drive to Montana. We had a safety worker helping us and he tore off the side of the plastic where the seat belt is, hoping to find a release button with no luck.. he ended up having to cut the belt. Now our van has lots of damage from that when it could have been an easy fox with a release .. it was a very tense 40 mins of getting it off.. it was very tight around his waist and constricting his abdomen
