I know the device you mean, and had wondered about that myself. I was
told that, by having the belt in the correct position at the time of
impact, the belt would be kept there by the forces of the impact.
However, I have my doubts, and learned a long time ago that mechanics
don't always know everything about cars.

So, I don't know. I will see if I can find out.
