When driving on highways or urban expressways without wearing a seatbelt, a fine of 50 yuan will be imposed, and 2 points will be deducted. If a passenger fails to wear a seatbelt as required while the vehicle is traveling on the highway, a fine of 20 yuan will be imposed. When driving on roads other than highways or urban expressways, if the driver does not use a seatbelt as required, a fine of 50 yuan will be imposed, but no points will be deducted. Penalties vary depending on the type of road, as detailed below: When driving on a highway, if the driver fails to use a seatbelt as required, a fine of 200 yuan will be imposed, and 2 points will be deducted. When driving on urban expressways (such as riverside roads, ring roads, etc.), if the driver fails to use a seatbelt as required, a fine of 200 yuan will be imposed, and 2 points will be deducted. When driving on other roads, if the driver fails to use a seatbelt as required, a fine of 50 yuan will be imposed. The role of seatbelts: To counteract the deceleration during a collision, preventing the driver and passengers from experiencing a second impact with objects such as the steering wheel, dashboard, or windshield. Additionally, the extension effect of the seatbelt can further cushion the force of deceleration.
