Does a seatbelt ticket go on your record in Illinois?
My friend was super distracted the other day and forgot to put his seatbelt on while running errands. Unfortunately, a police officer saw him and he got a ticket! He’s already had a few minor traffic tickets and is worried that this will affect his insurance rates. Does a seatbelt ticket go on your driving record in Illinois?

Oh no! Sounds like some seriously bad timing.
In some scenarios, a seatbelt ticket will go on your
driving record
in Illinois. It’s not a moving violation so there won’t be any points put on your friend’s license. But most sources report that if it’s a repeat violation or the fine goes unpaid, then it will appear on a driving record—and might affect your Illinois car insurance
rates.Staying safe on the road is more than just buckling up—it’s also making sure that you have the right
car insurance
coverage. Count on trustworthy insurance comparison app
