How is this even possible?
It ties together the two rear seat belt buckles to prevent them being squeezed together and leading the bottom one to be unbuckled by itself while driving.
It should be obvious to anyone who dabbles in physics that the seat belt buckles should be fixed to the vehicle in a way that makes this impossible to happen.
The pictures in the reference linked to Tekniikan Maailma[1] show the obvious absurdity of the design.

- cptskippy 8y agoSadly this doesn't strike me as unusual. I am trying to remember the car I was in, an 80s American car for sure, but the two back seat buckles were similar to this but had a rivet driven through the nylon strap to keep them ganged together.
