ABSTRACT:
A safety belt adjustment device and a safety belt system are disclosed in which an automobile shoulder belt is adjusted by a device mountable on the shoulder belt itself engages the belt so as to reduce the angle at which the belt crosses the passenger's chest, thereby lowering the point at which the belt crosses the center of the passenger's chest, thus allowing the shoulder belt to be safely and comfortably used by people who, for physical reasons such as shortness, would otherwise be unable to use the shoulder belt.
