Have neck injuries risen, stayed the same, or fallen since neck braces came out?Also "logic" would suggest that providing an alternative load path away from your neck/spine would be preferred. Given the choice which would you prefer; broken clavicle or broken neck?Another argument I've heard is that with a really hard impact (from the front) you'll break/damage your spine where the back piece ends (bottom of it). However my thinking is that if you manage to hit your head hard enough to break your spine with the back piece, what damage would have happened without it. Plus if I were to break my back/spine I'd want it as low as possible.
