| | | Seat Belt Violation - California What is the name of your state? - California
I own a '93 Toyota Corolla with the auto shoulder belt, and separate lap belts you fasten yourself. I got pulled over for not wearing my seat belt and in my nervousness about being pulled-over (it was my first time), I didn't tell the police offier that I had my lap belt on, which I don't think he noticed. I believe he only saw that my shoulder belt wasn't on.
How is the law intrepreted for vehicles with two separate belts? Am I in compliance with the law if I have only my lap belt on?
I want to plead "not guilty" if I can.
I'd really appreciate a response. |

| | | Both seat belts must be used, not just the lap belt. | |
