I have a real understanding of what seat belts are, But--

I have never heard of having to wear seat belts indide the rv...

Driver and passenger yeaa== But when did it become manditory that there be seat belts in the coach!!!!!!??????????????????
Brother in  law got hit with a ticket from the C H P for $348.00
for not having seat belts in the coach for his four kids.....
Now this sucks!!!!!! His vacation already cost him $1,900
Now this.. Has anyone ever heard of this law ?????

We have it in NY. What I did was, well, I collect old cars and had a set of belts, so I mounted them on the bench seat behind the passenger seat. when we're camping I just lift the cusion and put them uner it.

Obviously I did not make my self  clear..

When did they make it a "law that the couch be equiped with seat belts"
I contacted Camping World and "They never heard of a silly law"
Unfortunately DMV is closed thanks to our Govenator" ha ha ha ha
Some of these desil pushers I know don't have seat belts in the coach... I know it is the safest thing to do for the occupants but
Really,When we boiught our Rig It was not equiped with seat belts
and at least I would think the Cop would have given my Brother in law a warrning...  Oh well, we don't make the law we just pay for it...   John
