[Vision2020] MPD Press Release

[Shawn Clabough]

Correlation to voting likelihood just coincidence?  Or are they saying the older you are, the less we want you to wear your seatbelt?

This seat belt fine law sounds like age discrimination to me;

 

Child. . . . . . $79.99

Teenager. . .$61.50

Adult. . . . . . $10.00
Senior. . . . . $05.00

 

Are there family and group rate discounts?

The focus effort is great! However, what's up with the puny $10.00 fine? May as well not have a seat belt law.

PRESS RELEASE

Seatbelt enforcement

May 25, 2011

 

In an effort to decrease the rate of traffic injuries and focus on the goal of zero deaths; the Moscow Police Department will be participating in a statewide seatbelt enforcement mobilization. Through education and increased law enforcement presence, the Moscow Police Department hopes to increase the rate of seatbelt use within our jurisdiction. The enhanced enforcement will be conducted between May 26th and June 7th. 

 

In the state of Idaho: (I.C. 49-672, 49-673) 

 

Seatbelt laws have differing penalties for vehicle operators and passengers, depending upon the age of the occupants.

 

Vehicle operators are required to have every passenger, under the age of six (6), secured in a child safety restraint. There can be a $79.00 fine for violating Idaho’s child car-seat code. 

 

The adult driver of a motor vehicle is required to wear a safety restraint and they are responsible for their juvenile passengers. There can be a $10 fine for adult drivers not restrained, or adult drivers with unrestrained juveniles.

 

Juvenile drivers are responsible for their own safety restraint and the restraints of their juvenile passengers. There can be a $61.50 fine for an unrestrained juvenile driver, or a juvenile driver with an unrestrained juvenile passenger.

 

Adult passengers are responsible for their own safety restraint and may face a $10.00 fine, for not wearing a safety restraint. 

 

Please do your part and buckle up this Memorial Day Holiday.
