What is the name of your state? Michigan
I have a medical exemption from wearing my seatbelt due to a shoulder condition. My exemption was issued in California by a certified physician. I am a Michigan resident. Recently I was pulled over and the police issued me a ticket saying that he felt funny about accepting my exemption because the doctor was "so far away and this looks like it comes from off the internet". I have a laminated card with all the info and my doctors signature as well as his information where he practices in California and Washington. I was under the impression that states recognized each others doctors in this sense. Reciprocity of that type has always been just understood I thought. I am fighting this ticket but would love some input before I go to court. Thanks.
