Yeah I do. Just seems such a natural thing to do, and once they are on you dont even know they are there so Ive no idea why people dont bother wearing them.

Belt is only a fine, 100%.
Why the fuck they'd give him the choice when they were going to do him anyway (not exactly going to save them anytime) I do not know

they did that to a blokey at work in his work van. he is quite old, and has been driving since before seat belts were mandatory (not an excuse i know), got pulled for speeding (35 in 30). the copper gave him the choice of 60£ for no belt, or get done for speeding. he choose the fine for no belts lol

I love it when I see someone do something obviously stupid and they then try to make out they are stretching or something like that

That's the best one when you beep at someone for a chuckle and they start to wave, then start stroking their hair when they realise they've no connection with the person who beeped them.
