Better know the law…


With the UK’s seatbelt law just turning 40 years-old, police are reminding everyone about the consequences of being a scofflaw, including classic car drivers. If you aren’t aware, the fine for driving without a belt on is up to £500. For anyone who owns an older vehicle, it’s key they know the law well or they could be paying a hefty fine.

See what happens when you don’t wear a seatbelt here.

If a classic car was made before 1966, nobody is required to be belted in, according to a report from Express. However, children under the age of 3 can’t travel in the vehicle. Children over 3 are required to ride in the backseat. Ultimately, the driver gets to choose if any kids can go for a spin in their car, instead of big daddy government making that call.
