Car and Driver take a look at the Hans device

This may really belong in a different section but Im dropping it in here in the hope that anyone who should be wearing one and isnt will decide to put one on.

Thanks Jim , Robert Hubbard and the guys at Downing Atlanta for saving lives

There are some of HANS competitors that may work better for you depending on a multitude of factors. But do take a look at all of the options, learn, and decide from there.
