It is my understanding that the inertia switch works in the event of 
a collision. The force of the collision throws the switch. This way 
if you get in a wreck the fuel pump is shut off.

If you had a wreck without the switch the electric fuel pump would 
continue to run pumping fuel. If you had a fuel line burst you would 
increase your chances of a fire. Also, without the intertia switch 
your engine would continue to get fuel and run(unless there is some 
other safety device that will kill the engine).

I would want to be sure to have this safety device...

Just my 2 cents worth...
