Belt up with ease
Now kids can clunk-click in comfort
New invention makes seatbelts safer and more comfortable for kids to wear.
12th March 2008
Keeping youngsters safe in the car is every parent’s top priority. But when they have grown to a certain height and need to use an adult seatbelt which doesn’t quite fit, you could have problems.
The Autosafe Seat Belt Height Adjuster is a clever invention that makes the restraints more comfortable – and, crucially, safer – for children to use. It can be difficult to get them to wear a standard belt properly, as they are likely to tuck it under an arm to stop it rubbing their neck – but this positioning can be lethal in a crash. Autosafe’s solution is a simple strap that wraps around the back of your rear seats and adds a retaining clip for the belt which positions it to suit a child. The add-on is easy to fit and crash tests proved it to be far safer than when children use only a normal seatbelt.
If you think you’ve seen the product before, chances are you have! Inventor Peter Sesay won backing for it on TV show Dragon’s Den. Investors Duncan Bannatyne and Peter Jones handed over their cash for a slice of the firm. The adjuster is available online and from Halfords, Argos, Smyths Toys and Tesco Direct.
