Seat Belt Laws In Idaho

By Pat George

As everyone in Idaho knows, a person must wear a seat belt whenever a vehicle is in motion because they will protect you if you are involved in any car accident. However, the Idaho Legislature just made this law even more important. Recently, the Idaho Legislature enacted a statute that could have a large impact on a person who has not used a seat belt and is injured in a car accident. If the failure to wear the seat belt caused the injuries to be more severe than they would have been had the injured person been wearing a seat belt, that evidence can be admitted. This would reduce the injured person’s recovery. The moral of this story is that seat belt is more important than ever.
