I think this helps to highlight the difficulty of gathering evidence for or against neck braces.
Your lads crash sounds similar in severity to the two that I mentioned but neither of us saw all three so we can not be sure.
In your case you feel strongly that without the neck brace the damage to your lad would have been greater and I respect your opinion on that.
In the two crashes I mentioned neither lad was wearing a neck brace and no injuries were sustained.
All in all I believe this makes it very difficult to suggest the MSA should make them compulsory and I agree with alanrr that it should be left to parents/drivers to choose.
There was a post 3/4 years ago from a cadet dad whose lad suffered a broken collarbone from a crash that souned similar to the ones we have mentioned. The dad said the collarbone was probably caused by wearing the neck brace but then added that hecould only imagine what more damage would have occured without the brace. Could have been worse or could have been no broken collarbone.
