Abstract: An automobile restraint system for retaining a passenger relative to an automobile seat during deceleration of the vehicle, such as occurs in a crash. The system includes a pair of shoulder webs which extend from behind the seat over respective left and right shoulders of the passenger to connect with a central web fastened at the forward edge of the seat. A pair of retaining webs intersect the respective left and right shoulder webs and extend downwardly to respective left and right sides of the passenger or seat. The system engages the upper anterior portions of the thighs, and the shoulders of the passenger during deceleration, thereby precluding contact of the webs with the neck, chest, or central torso portions of the passenger.
