Question about seat belt tickets
Posted on 8/7/16 at 5:09 pm

First offense is $35, second offense is $50. But: seat belt violations don't go on your driving record (I looked it up, I don't have the citation handy, but it's there.) So, how do they know it's a second offense?

They give written warnings... That doesn't go on your record, but they know about it ...

When you get stopped by a cop whats the first thing he asks for? Your fricking license so he can run it.

Seat belt tickets do not go on your driving abstract.

In La. they are considered a "moving violation", and yes they do appear on your DMV record.

When the officer that stops you lets you go, he radios dispatch and reports any citations(including warnings), which are entered into the system. That way, even if you are in another state/jurisdiction and your DL info is pulled up, it shows any and all interactions you've had with law enforcement on previous stops.

second offense in same jurisdiction. So if out of jurisdiction they won't know, if in jurisdiction it's then on your docket.

You misunderstand what "driving record" means. Has nothing to do with what law enforcement agencies can see.

This isn't 1920. All law enforcement agencies have access to the DMV database in a second. The difference is that some really small jurisdictions don't report regularly, however most do. If you were issued a citation in Shongaloo (La.), and you're stopped in Buras (La.), it makes no difference, it shows on a record check.

Found the statute
RS 32:853
So LEO's have access to some other database than the one referenced above?

I find it smarter to be as legal as possible at all times, so when I speed, and I will, they might give me a break.

I don't know but I'm on my fourth one and they won't let me just pay it. They said I have to talk to the judge.

Remember that the next time a motorcycle cop writes you one.

Remember when seat belt tickets weren't a thing? And how they PROMISED that if they were made law they wouldn't be a primary offense?
Well look at it now. It's the very definition of mission creep and why you should never give the government even an inch

It tells you in the statute you cited.
quote:
The operating record of an individual driver shall include only those offenses where an individual has pled guilty and been sentenced thereupon, forfeited bond resulting in a final judgment of forfeiture, or been found guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction of violating a law in the operation of a motor vehicle, or civil actions in which an individual has been adjudged at fault, and any accident in which the driving privileges of the person are suspended for failure to provide liability security or proof of financial security.
That's just a DPS/DMV thing that pertains to what the public can see.
Most police agencies can see every traffic stop and criminal offense, regardless of conviction or disposition, and regardless of whether it's been expunged.
