A CAR whizz has revealed a little-known feature that can make your journey much more comfortable.
Sidney Raz took to TikTok to share a tip that he “didn’t know until I was in my thirties” but is “important for safety”.

He revealed how to adjust the height of your seatbeltTikTok/sidneyraz
Sidney said: “Here’s something I didn’t know until I was in my thirties.
“Seatbelt height can be adjusted.
“It even has a middle [height].”
He went out to his car to demonstrate how motorists can take advantage of the handy hack.
All you have to do is check whether the pillar loop, which anchors the seatbelt to the wall of the car, has a small button on it.
If so, when you hold that down you should be able to slide the loop up or down to change the angle of the belt coming across your chest.
Many cars, especially newer models, have this feature, but not all do so it is worth checking first.
However, if yours does, then you can use it to get comfy without the belt reaching across your neck or sitting too low on your chest.
Social media commenters were left amazed by the advice.
One wrote: “I just learned this last week too. It changed my life.”
Another added: “I wish mine had that. I’m so short the seatbelt rubs my neck.”
Then again, it didn’t work out for everyone, with one user fuming: “I knew this but I’m short and on the lowest setting it’s still too high.”
It comes after a fellow TikToker revealed a 50p B&M item that will clean a filthy spot that drivers always forget.
Meanwhile, a mechanic explained what to do if your car is making an annoying rattling noise.
Many cars have a button on the seatbelt pillar loop which allows it to be raised or loweredTikTok/sidneyraz
