Advoce on a no seat belt ticket

[Guest]

My advice is to go to court. If the policeman does not show up, (and

you don’t have a bunch of other stuff,) it is possible the ticket

gets dismissed.

good luck

gave me a ticket. I didn’t think I did anything wrong and forgot the

seat belt law. I live in Illinois.

I didn’t see him, I was looking for an Estate Sale and turning my

head left and right, so he thought that I was ignoring him. I am

short and was wearing a bulky coat that was unzipped. I think that

for that reason he didn’t see me buckled when I went past him. I

showed him how fast I can buckle up hoping he would see that I do use

my seat belt.

a chance or will I have to pay the $55 plus court costs. If you know

anything about this problem please give me your input.
