Seat belts are called "inertia reel" belts which means that part of what activates them is not being yanked on by Mothra but the inertia caused by the car slowing down abruptly causes them to lock up. If you want to test your belts out, try pulling on them while braking hard at a stop light. I think you'll find they work just fine.
