A driver safety capsule or cell for a race car, the cell encapsulating and protecting the entire body of the driver. After a collision, the capsule and the driver immobilized therein are removable together from the car so that further head or spinal injury is avoided. Inertial tethers restrain movement of the driver's head and shoulders out of the capsule. A chest plate transforms impact forces to the capsule, minimizing injury to the chest.
