Should Rear Passengers Wear Seat Belts?

[LeLeilani]

Rear passengers must wear seat belts. Below is relevant information about the consequences of not wearing seat belts in the back seat: 1. Consequences for pregnant women and passengers holding infants: For pregnant women or passengers holding infants who genuinely cannot wear seat belts, traffic police will enforce the law humanely during roadside checks, issuing warnings and allowing them to proceed. For safety, traffic police recommend that pregnant women adjust the seat belt position and fasten it properly. Children under 4 years old should use child seats, and children under 12 years old are not allowed to sit in the front seat and must wear seat belts. 2. Consequences for rear passengers not wearing seat belts: If rear passengers do not wear seat belts, the driver will also be penalized, which many drivers find unfair. According to legal provisions, drivers are obligated to inform passengers before the ride and must not drive if passengers are not wearing seat belts. Therefore, the legal responsibility falls on the driver, leading to penalties. According to the 'Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations,' penalties are clearly stipulated for passenger violations, mainly including illegal hailing of vehicles, interfering with the driver, and engaging in dangerous behavior during the ride.
