Riding without a seatbelt is far from a ‘cheap’ thrill when you’re dealing with potential costs of life and safety – not to mention a $391 fine.
Whether you’re a driver or passenger you must by law wear your seatbelt in a vehicle.
If you don’t, you face a fine of $391 and three demerit points as a driver, or passenger aged 16 years or older.
Drivers can also be fined and lose points for every passenger in the vehicle who isn’t buckled up – that adds up to a huge cost and potential loss of licence.
The responsibility for making sure everyone in the car is wearing a seatbelt lies with the driver of the vehicle.
A seatbelt is vital for protection in a collision or accident, as it holds the occupant in place, preventing additional harm and keeping them in the right position for an airbag to deploy effectively.

Police are asking the community to remain vigilant and remember that no government organisation, particularly the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) will seek payment via gift vouchers.
Police around the state have received a number of reports about ‘scammers’ calling members of the public and threatening arrest warrants if they refuse to repay a tax debt.
In many cases, the victims have been told to purchase large sums of gift vouchers as a form of payment.
Police in Maryborough were notified of a 40-year-old local woman who presented herself to the local police station, after she received a threatening phone call.
In this case, the ‘scammers’ requested payment through Google Play gift vouchers.
Another report was received by officers in Logan, where a 30-year-old Woodridge man purchased $9000 worth of gift cards.
The victim was asked to purchase iTunes and Google Play gift vouchers.
Investigations are continuing on both cases, however police are appealing to members of the community
