Bill Summary
Relative to primary enforcement of seatbelt violations. Public Safety and Homeland Security.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Section 13A of Chapter 90 of the law by removing the language that restricts law enforcement agencies from enforcing seatbelt violations except when the driver has been stopped for another motor vehicle violation or offense. The removal of this restriction would allow for primary enforcement of seatbelt laws, meaning law enforcement could stop drivers solely for not wearing a seatbelt without needing to observe another offense.
