As far as getting rear ended goes(hope that never happens also) Its still an unfinished piece, and I am still rigging up a back support piece for it that will not allow for any movement of the phone from the dock connector. Ive already tested braking really hard and its solid. As far as safety during an accident goes, whether the phone is in my lap or on the passenger seat or cupholder, its still a projectile. this at least provides a bit of security. Thanks for the comments chops, I will take your concerns into consideration when rigging up my backplate!
i understand that the dock will not move, im more worried about the phone. the actual connector on the dock is the only thing holding it on, and thats a fragile piece of plastic. however, that back support piece would be good, or if you had the time, you could fabricate something with fiberglass/bondo and sink the connector in, and mold the dock around your phone a half inch or two, making it nice and snug
