Seat belt law should be fair

I was stopped by the police and given a ticket for no seat belt on March 23.

There should not be any discrimination in the law about who should wear seat belts and who shouldn't.

I will admit passengers and children should wear them. It should be up to the driver if he or she does not want to buckle up.

If I am going to get a ticket, then every school bus driver should get a ticket for every child on his or her bus.

This law needs to be put to the Supreme Court and ruled on so as not to have a double standard where the law is concerned.
