We have them because we have seat belts and not harnesses, no rollcages, and seats that are more about comfort than safety.
Video of Seatbelt vs Harness Actually our whole safety system is more about comfort, and just enough to keep us safe. IMHO. That being said, the chances of us being in an accident like a racecar would experience, is pretty slim. Another thing that goes into race car safety, is the fact that so much of the car is designed to absorb the impact and reduce the force of the wreck. That is why they shred away from the cage the driver is in. Our cars have "crash zones" that are designed to crumple to reduce the momentum, also.
