Another thought......
What goes on in a person's head is real to them....that having been
said......the seat belt is a must, a 3-point might help and a strip
of dark tinting at the bottom of both the pass windscreen and in
front of the dash, about 10 or 11 inches high might also help in
taking away that feeling of looking at the highway between ones
knees...and get her involved in the operation the ship...perhaps
start by having her set back-on on the cockpit floor to talk on the
cb or tune the radio or read a map..whatever.....but if you see
things happening , where she starts to move up front....Do Not
mention it to her...just let it happen and be patient !
OMJ is that a bridge we're gonna have to cross....what is my 'out' if
it tumbles?
Yes ....the mind......
Good luck
