Seatbelts normally lock-fast when they recieve a certain amount of force. Occam's seatbelt will geometrically tighten upon impact so as to reduce the shock your body experiences normally(in a crash when the seatbelt locks).

All other things being equal, the occupied seatbelt is the tightest. |

Most seat-belts these days actually pull the seatbelt tighter in a crash. They work better this way. |

yeah, it's baked, seat belts pre-tension nowadays. not sure if they do it geometerically though. |
|
| |
can you get a seatbelt for a dog? |
|
| |
Attach its lead to the grab handle. (Sorry Eric, don't mean it really). |
|
| |
Don't the belts stretch a bit anyway to reduce the shock? A bit like climbing ropes but less so. |

I was involved in a head on collision last year. My seatbelt saved my life. With the force of the impact the seatbelt melted to the top I was wearing at the time. |
