Sorry if not aloud does anyone know if the ai cameras in the uk will fine you for not wearing a seat belt in a car that legally doesn’t need them
 
Maybe if you have an under 3 in it, and vehicle did not have seat belts originally
Otherwise you will have a good case to get fine rescinded
 
Ai camera doesn't send out a fine, a human does it, at the moment. Whether that is any better I wouldn't like to say.
If your vehicle is legal to drive with out a seatbelt then you can appeal the fine anyway.
If you have seatbelts then I believe you have to wear them.
 
Just had to Google up the facts.
Compulsory to be fitted from 1965 ? onwards (although apparently my 1970 2A doesn't need a centre seat belt), but not compulsory to actually wear them until 1983.
I remember that some Del Boy type entrepreneur started selling Puffa type jackets with a black diagonal stripe across the front.
They never took off, but maybe it's time for a revival ?
