Car Crash Simulator

Today Constable Julie visited Muritai School to teach the Juniors about seatbelt safety.

We all had a turn in the car crash simulator.
"Who is crazy enough to want to have a car crash this morning?" Constable Julie asked the class.
"I am!" cried Sienna. It was her turn first.
We had to sit in the seat, do up our seatbelt and then......the seat sloooowly moved backwards until it was at the top of a little ramp. Then the seat started moving downhill at 7km an hour, before...CRASH! Suddenly the seat stopped moving but our bodies kept going - lucky we had our seatbelts on!

Everyone said they were very happy to be wearing a seatbelt and that was travelling at just 7km an hour. Most of the time in a car we're moving at around 50km an hour.

Check out these photos of us in the car crash simulator:
