Re: Cops all over & a ticket was given!

They just did change the Law and made seatbelt violations, a "Primary Offense" to which they can now pull you over for only not wearing one.

Seat Belt Primary Offence Passes House Committee
On March 29, the House Transportation Policy Committee passed HF 1087 (Powell-Burnsville), making failure to wear a seat belt a primary offence. This would allow police officers to stop and ticket a driver solely for not wearing a seat belt. Current law only allows ticketing the driver if he or she was stopped for another violation.
