Who is required to wear a seat belt in a vehicle?

The correct answer is that everyone in the vehicle is required to wear a seat belt. This law is designed to enhance safety for all occupants, not just those in the front seat or the driver. Statistics show that using seat belts significantly reduces the risk of injury or fatality in the event of a car accident. This requirement reflects a commitment to the health and safety of all passengers, as even those in the back seat can be propelled forward in a crash, posing a danger to themselves and others in the vehicle.

In addition to the safety reasons, having a rule that mandates seat belt use for everyone helps simplify enforcement for law enforcement officers and ensures a collective responsibility among all vehicle occupants. This law demonstrates a proactive approach to minimizing harm and promoting a culture of safety on the roads.
