ABSTRACT:
A system for restraining the lower limbs of a prisoner being conveyed in a vehicle, such as a police car, to preclude injury to persons and to property by violent kicking action of the prisoner. The system utilizes a laminated strap having synthetic hook and loop fastening elements formed on one ply of the laminate and a reinforced vinyl backing formed on the other ply. One end of the strap is fastened to a grommet through which the other end of the strap may be drawn and folded over so that hook elements and loop elements may be engaged to adhere while the vinyl portion of the strap is tightly engaged about the lower limbs of the prisoner. A belt having a catch in the form of a buckle at one end of the belt is attached to the strap at the other end. The catch is tossed out the door of the vehicle and is lodged against a portion of the door and the adjacent door frame. The catch has a magnet bonded to a flat surface thereof so that it can adhere to the vehicle and not fall away.
