Re: ticket for shoulder belt
I would need to double check the wording of the statute. I would also need to make sure that the ticket was written per a state law and not any sort of a county or city ordinance. If you would like to email me what is called the "VIOLATION SECTION NO."
I will look it up and see if I can answer your question. The VIOLATION SECTION NO is on the right hand side of the ticket, almost half way down. You can email me at [email protected]
