THE KEY TO DRIVING STABILITY
Now available from www.gs-direct.co.uk, the award-winning CG-Lock is a simple to fit device which clips onto a standard seatbelt in minutes. It allows the lap portion of the belt to be tightened, locking the driver’s centre of gravity and providing improved safety, control and comfort. The CG-Lock allows the driver to maintain an upright posture, with the pelvis tilted forward at the top, ensuring the spine is aligned with the lumbar support for the whole journey. This leads to greater stability and prevention or relief from existing lower back pain.
The extra stability from CG-Lock can lead to greater control and confidence for disabled drivers. For those with problems staying upright when using hand controls, the CG-Lock is an ideal solution. Once stable in the vehicle the driver maintains a very good degree of balance and can safely use hand controls for steering, accelerating and braking. So much so that the BBC selected the CG-Lock as one of the 'big advances' for disabled drivers and passengers at the Mobility Roadshow.
The CG-Lock does not require any drilling or modification of any existing parts and does not affect the subsequent resale value of the car. Fully crash-tested, it does not interfere with the safety of typical three point inertia seat belts with or without pre-tensioning devices.
Now available on www.gs-direct.co.uk, the CG-Lock costs only £45.95 (inc. VAT) with free delivery...
EXCLUSIVE:
STANDING START
Read an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Sir Frank Williams, founder of the Williams F1 racing team, on 'the benefits of standing.'
In March 1986 Frank Williams was returning from the Paul Ricard Circuit in France when he had a serious accident, leading to his sustaining a spinal cord injury and becoming a C6/7 complete quadriplegic. Since the accident Frank has been confined to a wheelchair. Leaving hospital, he bought a Levo standing chair and, in his words 'there was no turning back. It was magic. The benefits are both physical and mental,' he said. 'It's been a real life changer.'
