Hate to be Devil's Advocate here, but how many decades did it take to get all of the older cars off the road that didn't even offer Seatbelts? Then when seatbelts were first offered, shoulder and lapbelts were separate from each other. It took Volvo to design the 3-point belt that's currently offered Industry Wide. How many years did it take for Airbags. Just being realistic. I know I LOOK for as many safety features as possible in new car purchases, but there's always going to be those that cannot (or will not) purchase a brand new car.

This feature will take decades to become standard fare on every vehicle on the road. Hell, I just had to junk (2018) a 1964 Buick Skylark convertible (engine fire destroyed the car) and the rear seats didn't have seatbelts. The front seatbelts were installed by me in 1984 when I bought the car.
