Once I know I'm past the point of no return, I let go of the steering wheel and cross my arms and grab my shoulder straps with my hands. That keeps my hands out of the steering wheel spokes and helps keep them inside during the roll over. 


We were over hunting the Manastash one year and Odie Whiteside (Whiteside towing south of Snohomish) was ahead of us as we were headed back to camp one night after a run to Ellinsburg. As he crossed a wood deck bridge, I seen his CJ5 pitch sideways from the ice, around and around they went. They went off the road, hit the ditch and rolled several times. Everyone was OK, but our friend Chuck who was in the back. A tool box had come open and all the sockets etc had flew around inside the Jeep as it rolled. The next day he looked like some one had taken a ball peen hammer to his head. I think it was after that one that Odie coined the phrase "A Jeep aint worth a **** unless its been rolled" :redneck:
