Forums Forums Wirral Information Law And Your Rights No Seat Belt Fined

Last night i was going down laird st, an theres was police everywhere as they were do random stops, so i got stopped and once agen i neva ad my seatbelt on an i got a £30 fine, so am gutted now, n am never not going to wear my seatblt again now plz no1 shout at me x

Glad u've learnt ur lesson now,u've learnt the hard way but at the end of the day it WILL save your life,if you dont wear it the chances of u eating kerb during a crash are pretty high

There was that crash the other month were FOUR children werent wearing there seatbelt and they ALL died,2 or 3 of them ended up OUTSIDE the car

think i heard about that, well i have learnt my lesson now, off down the police station in a minute lol, i fort i was going to get a criminal record

Maybe we dont all agree about wearing seat belts,
but one thing is for sure.

Get caught and £30 Fine

Caught x 10 = £300

I think we have all heard a story where "if he was wearing a seat belt he would have been killed".

It has reduced deaths that much has been proven.

That pizza advert got the message across.
Where it repeated the same scene with out belts on.

Click to see what happens if you dont wear a seatbelt

I don't understand people who don't wear seat belts, I find it very odd.

Something i find especially funny, is some new cars constantly beep through your speakers untill you put your seat belt on. Some people put up with the annoying beep just so they don't have to wear a seat belt. lol

this is goin 2 sound like an excuse but its not lol, because im so small i have to have my seat as far 4ward as it will go (dont laugh) so the seatbelt rubs on me neck an it hurts like i said its not an excuss jus saying x

u can lower the seatbelt on the B pillar so it wont rub.FAiling that u can get things that help lower the belt further still. i dont wear seatbelts at work because theres NOTHING to crash into,crashes are impossible,and i mean that.u'd have to crash on purpose to crash,

and the fact were only in the wagons for a couple of hundred metres at a time negates the need for em

unfortunatlly u cant lower them on mine think i need a bumper seat lol.

Get some harness / seat belt pads to help stop them rubbing - dead cheap on e-bay

Motorworld and Halfords also do them

well ive got sum pink ones tha my dad got me, but an not really into pink stuff, but i seen sum ripspeed ones in halfors the other day so think im going to get them.

right i'm off down the police station pay this stupid fine, spk 2 use soon x

been there done that. only got the fine cos he could do me for speeding. and the other time they did do me for speeding and ignored the seat belt. i always wear it now, it costs to much not to wear it.

yeah i TRY to wear mine as often as possible now but still dont sometmes.

must of been caught now 3 maybe 4 times and i always think "from now on..................." but then i dont lol

haha ive been wearing mine now since i got my fine, except for the next day i left my fellas at like 8 in the morning to go home an it only takes me about 2mins to get home so i thought i'd b ok not to wear my seatbelt and at the bottom off his road there was police everywhere i poo'd myself haha, and i've wore it ever since lol x

I cant comprehend how some people can "just forget,or just not do it"

For me its equally as important as turning the key

Get in
Close door
Pull seatbelt on and fit stereo face
Start engine
Handbrake off,and away u go

U can do it at the same time as other stuff,its not like it slows u down
