We live in a world where hidden product characteristics go unappreciated. Consider cars: there are numerous characteristics whose purposes are lost even to experienced drivers. A viral TikTok video (uploaded by @epiccfacts) has highlighted one such feature: the button on your seat belt. The application is as straightforward as it is eye-opening: individuals are realizing that they may have been driving about in their cars without ever understanding a crucial element of them.
TikTok’s Seat Belt Revelation
The TikTok posture in the video solves a subject I’ve long wondered about: why do all seat belts in cars have this mystery button? The video explains the reasoning for the seat belt clicker’s existence. The buckle has a slot that the button keeps from moving past. This ensures that the seat belt buckle is always in the correct location for the driver to clip the belt into.

Viewers’ reactions in the comments section fell into one of two schools of awareness: ‘I could never have thought of that seat belt thing! Mind. Blown.!’ versus: ‘You’re kidding – you didn’t know you could do that with a car?’ Following the video, social media networks became full of debate over general awareness of what was for many people a fairly basic automotive feature.
