Q

What are the basics of the seat-belt law?

A

Under state law, the driver and all passengers of a passenger vehicle (e.g. car, van, pickup truck and SUV) must wear a seatbelt. The failure of a driver, front-seat passenger and children under age 18 to wear a seatbelt is a primary offense. The driver is responsible for all passengers under age 18. Front-seat passengers 18 years of age and over are responsible for themselves.
