ABSTRACT:
A system for disabling or neutralizing a vehicle when less than a predetermined force is exerted upon the spring assembly of the operator's seat of such vehicle. A contact plate is mounted directly upon the spring assembly interiorly of the padding and outer covering of the seat. A pressure responsive push-type switch is mounted upon a pair of torsion springs attached to the seat frame also interiorly of the padding and outer covering. At any time a given predetermined force is exerted upon the outer covering, padding and contact plate, the switch will be in contact with the contact plate and will permit the vehicle to operate. Whenever, through excessive operator bouncing or the like, such predetermined force is removed, contact between the plate and switch will be interrupted and the vehicle will be rendered inoperative.
