Abstract
A safety belt arrangement includes a controllable blocking apparatus that is controlled sensitive to the vehicle and/or to the safety belt. A safety belt buckle is provided and a tensioning apparatus is inserted in the safety belt arrangement, such that the tensioning apparatus, when triggered, eliminates the slack in the belt. The arrangement also includes a continuously working device for limiting the force exerted on the safety belt by the forward displacement of the belted occupant.
