It was a bunch of crap for sure. But I had my seat belt on pulling out of McDonald’s in Springlake. There was a state trooper setting watching for people who don’t know how to use a round about. He didn’t see my seat belt he said but once he got to me he seen it was clicked but he said in NC the law says it has to be wore the correct way and the strap HAS to be over my shoulder. I instantly called my attorney in Mo and he said pay it man it’s only $10. Well not so fast Tommy Norrid attorney at law. Here it is $25.50 but hold on. You have to pay a fine on top of it and it’s $155. So the total cost is $180 for NOT HAVING it on correctly. It even states that on the ticket. I’ll be going to court to fight it. If they don’t then I found an attorney who said for $100 he can and WILL get it dismissed. I guess im letting you all know to wear your seat belt correctly or this could be you.
My attorney in Mo says that 100% against the law itself for charging a fee other than a seat belt violation.
