What are the penalties and point deductions for not wearing a seat belt?

[LaNorah]

The "Road Traffic Safety Law" clearly stipulates that when a motor vehicle is in motion, the driver and passengers must use seat belts as required. Article 90 specifically states that motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules shall be given a warning or fined.

Last week, I forgot to fasten my seatbelt on the urban expressway and was fined 200 yuan on the spot by a traffic officer, with 2 points deducted from my license. It hurt like hell. My friend also mentioned that there are cameras everywhere now, and the fines are the strictest in the city, even more severe on highways where passengers can also be fined for not wearing seatbelts. Honestly, the money feels wasted, but thinking back, seatbelts can really save lives in critical moments. Not long ago, my neighbor got injured in an accident just because they weren't wearing one, and the ambulance bill ran into tens of thousands. My advice is to make it a habit to buckle up as soon as you get in the car—click—saving you money and points, and ensuring safer driving.
