The number one thing you can do to prevent “whiplash” from a car accident is to properly position your head restraint. The top of the head restraint should be as high (at least!) as the top of your head. When in doubt, push the head restraint up, especially if you are 5’8″ or taller. If you have questions regarding car safety feel free to call Dr. Hartwig, an auto-injury expert, at 503-235-7130.
