Abstract
A seat belt for a vehicle includes a belt webbing with several belt webbing layers and, in a shoulder belt region and a lap belt region, a belt interior located between at least two belt webbing layers to which a gas can be applied. The belt webbing is routed through an opening of a latch plate which is insertable into a buckle, by means of which latch plate the belt webbing is, if the seat belt is fastened, deflected at a lower deflection point in a transitional region from the lap belt region to the shoulder belt region. A gas passage connecting at least two sections of the belt interior is provided at the lower deflection point between the at least two belt webbing layers. The gas passage is a tube that is flexible at least in the radial direction. The flexible tube is plastically or elastically deformable.
