In a court it has very much to do with damages. A jury can find WM the cause of the accident but not fully responsible for the damages.

Our insurance Require all Passengers to Fastened Seat Belt at all times during there trip. According to New Jersey Seat Belt law all occupants are required to buckle up, regardless of their seating position in a vehicle. New Jersey law allows police to issue summonses to unbuckled back seat occupants, 18 years of age and older, Law makes Driver responsible for proper seat belt use by all occupants who are under the age of 18. Applies to all Passenger Vehicles including vans, trucks and SUV's, that are required to be equipped with seat belts.
