I was wearing my seatbelt while driving, but Mr HotShot Rookie Ontario cop pulled us over because a passenger was not wearing a seatbelt. Passenger got the $110(Can) violation. Young cops looking to make points.

No points, just the rules (and common sense).

It is State law here in Minnesota that ALL passengers must wear a seat belt, be sure you know the laws before you enter another country or state. Makes sense to me.

I agree - the law makes sense - didn't state that right

That's one of the laws where there is no warning or exceptions. You will get a ticket everytime for no seatbelts.

Not quite right on the MN law:
"Since 1986, Minnesota has had a mandatory seat belt law. Minn. Stat. 169.686 requires that a fastened seat belt be worn by: 1) the driver; 2) a passenger riding in the front seat; and 3) a passenger riding in any seat of a passenger vehicle who is older than three but younger than 11 years of age."

Everyone buckles up in my vehicle - no exceptions.
Good Luck!
