I agree. Technology is not being used at all as a safety measure.. a vest, remotely or manually activated, surface electronic progress monitoring (I'm not talking about looking at a watch here) and we have saved at least two lives.
Cars have airbags, there are explosive bolts to release fixings etc. I guess it comes down to cost as Eric mentioned.
Material for a separate thread I think.
