Sure. What I'm inferring is the head moves more without a tight seatbelt, due to the additional inertia of your body, and its angle.

It might be easier to imagine it with an example. If you've ever taken a class in something like Judo, the first thing they'll teach you is how to fall. It is incredibly important to maintain good posture as you fall, as hitting the mat with your head tilted too high is something that can turn you paraplegic in a second.

Same goes for a car. If your posture is fucked up, and your head hits the headrest wrong, it could lead to a broken neck.

As you train better posture, both your spine and the muscles around it find a new relaxed state. Essentially eliminating the risk of your head folding under the headrest.
