The button on the safety belt latch is large and right at the position where your elbow rests by your side, and when it hits the latch, it pops open the latch. Many times on the road, my wife has accidently been unlatched from her safety belt. It shouldn't be that easy to open the latch. If it does it when you're just driving along, I'd be afraid of what would happen if a passenger was jarred in an accident.
