You did not mention if you were wearing a bra of any kind... A support sports bra, not a thin cotton one, and a heavier top like a sweatshirt will probably alleviate the problem.
This is a problem that a lot of cis-women also have... most states have quite strict seat belt laws that require proper fastening and use.... unless you a have a doctor's note you can still get a costly ticket.... all depends on the policeman's mood and your responses to questions.
I have a friend back home that has breast cancer treatments and her breasts were very, very sore and raw, and she moved the seat belt strap that usually goes between the breasts to her side and under her arm.... she got stopped and was given a $160 ticket, the cop was not a nice man. She and her husband contacted their female state senator and she got the ticket reversed and the cop got a reprimand.... true story.
Oh I understand about proper use and placement of the lap and shoulder belts. I was a school bus driver for spacial needs. We had to be very careful about the placement. Improper placement can cause injury, sometimes permanent doing an accident.
During my younger days, had a car with separate belts, kept the shoulder one off because I couldn't reach things. Almost had my nose broken on the steering wheel during a accident. So I wear them properly even with discomfort now, no matter what.
Not sure what I would do in your friends place, or having a cast or other injuries.
Many (including law enforcement) can only see one way to do things no matter what. I have learned there are always some other way to do it, or why it should be changed.
