ABSTRACT:
An attachment for the steering wheel of a vehicle for preventing facial, head, eye and chest to a driver in the event of sudden impact of a vehicle. A buffer pad of energy absorbing material such as a foam rubber or a polyurethane foam is attached to the steering wheel on the operator side with clearance for gripping the wheel and an oval opening is provided to allow visual access to the speedometer and dashboard gauges. The oval opening also will receive the facial features of a driver upon vehicle impact and thus protect the face against injury.
