A handle for a door leaf of an automobile includes a gripping lever rotatably movable relative to the door leaf about a first axis of rotation between an inoperative position and a control position for opening a lock of the door leaf; a transmission lever mounted in a base of the handle attached to the door leaf, the transmission lever configured to be actuated by the gripping lever and to pivot about a second axis of rotation between inoperative and operative positions in which the transmission lever actuates the opening of the lock; and a safety system mounted in the base, configured to prevent the rotation of the transmission lever in the event of a crash. The safety system includes two inertial bodies pivotably mounted between inoperative and operative positions, preventing the rotation of the transmission lever in the event of a crash.
