I was told a racing harness is NOT DOT approved! :read:
I got a ticket for wearing my harness instead of my OE. While showing a guy at work the point of the harness, I didn't feel like taking it off so I drove home with it on. I wound up beating it because the judge was a drag racer and agreed with my arguement that the harness would provide more protection in the event of an incident then the OE one would :banana:
