ABSTRACT:
According to the present invention, a safety belt adjuster is provided. More specifically, a safety belt adjuster for receiving and properly positioning a conventional three-point seat belt about a child's body is provided. The safety belt adjuster ensures that the shoulder strap portion of the three-point seat belt is positioned across the child's shoulder rather than interfering with the child's neck or face. The safety belt adjuster comprises a body having an opening and an exit slot and a character safety adjuster accessory, wherein the character safety adjuster accessory is releasably attachable to the body. The safety belt adjuster may further comprise a divider, whereby the opening divides into a shoulder strap opening and a waist strap opening, and wherein the divider is releasably attachable to the body. The safety belt adjuster may be further modified such that the character safety adjuster accessory is releasably attachable to the reverse side of the body, thereby rendering the body reversible.
