It is possible for the arm restraint strap to slip under the lever of a
Duckbill type locking mechanism. Some people (I guess) were putting Tape
over the lever to keep the strap from getting under it. I personally don't
want anything in the way of my release when I go to "bail out". I adjust my
arm restraints to where I can just reach the furthest control in the car
(shifter) everything else(switches/firebottle releases)are within finger tip
reach of the steering wheel.

How do you attach arm restraints to your seatbelts? The new rule book
says you can't use tape on the locking device of the seatbelts to secure it
so the armrestraints don't pull it open, how could that happen and if it can
what do you use to keep the buckle closed? Sorry I've got mental meltdown on
this one. Scott
