There is a good chance the seat belt law will not pass......seems the Dems understand that thousands of 50$ tickets will make for a very angry voting public. What would work better for the people that want this bill passed is if they made not wearing a belt a secondary offence. If tickets are only given out after a motorist is stopped for another infraction the public will not feel so put-upon.

But, as usual, the Dems want it all, and most likely will get nothing.
