Claim Text:
1. Motor vehicle door lock equipped with a locking mechanism having a rotary latch, an actuation lever unit acting on the locking mechanism and a catch lever blocking the locking mechanism when acceleration forces of a given magnitude occur during an accident, wherein during normal non-actuated operation and in the event of a crash, the catch lever acts upon the rotary latch of the locking mechanism in a blocking position and allows the rotary latch and the locking mechanism to be in a releasing position only during normal opening operation, wherein the catch lever is elastically coupled to the actuation lever unit, and the catch lever is positioned relative to the actuation lever such that an inertial force of an inertia moment of the catch lever exceeds the coupling force relative to the actuation unit so as not to allow any relative movement of the catch lever in case of a crash.
