I have a Ford Escort and was always surprised that when pulling sharply on
the shoulder harness I could not get the seatbelt mechanism to stop the
forward motion.  On most other cars I try this with the mechanism locks
immediatly.

Does anyone know anything about this mechanism in particular, or a way to
sufficently test the mechanism without getting into an accident ?
