I'm Canadian and we're not in the habit of suing (the law limits what can be awarded in such cases to a REASONABLE maximum, which means unless there was ACTUAL negligence it won't be worth it), but you raise an interesting point that I hadn't even considered. I also didn't realise that Australia was moving towards US-style letigiousness.
In any case, if my 280SEL and I get into an accident severe enough to cause the belt to fail, I'll have bigger problems! I figure with the inertia reels, at least I won't have to train my passengers in the unfurling, latching, and hanging-up-on-exit of the magnetic ones. A few trips with the current setup and you understand why people hated to wear seatbelts! D.
