A seat belt anchor mechanism has such a structure that a base plate connected to the side of a vehicle body is separated from its corresponding seat-side member or members subsequent to the occurrence of an emergency so as to permit free sliding of the associated set even after a load of at least a predetermined level has been applied to the webbing. The separation can be achieved by a combination of brackets which are normally kept in engagement but in the event of an emergency are readily disengaged. Alternatively, a shear pin may also be used. The seat belt anchor mechanism permits easy escape of an occupant from a vehicle even in the event of an emergency such as collision.
