Description of the problem	My daughter got tangled in the seatbelt. Normally that would not be a problem but she had pulled the seat belt all the way out and activated the locking mechanism. It was very tight around her waist and i could not get her free from the seat belt. I had to cut it in order to free her. I have had to take her to the doctor because of some injury to her. I feel there should be some kind of release on the seatbelt lock. I am so thankful she was not hurt any worse than she was. I cannot believe it is going to cost me so much to replace a seat belt that i had no choice but to cut. I hope to see something done about seatbelts so no one has to go through this.
