There is no specific age limit for wearing a seat belt; rather, it is a crucial safety requirement for all passengers in a vehicle. According to safety regulations, children must be secured in appropriate car seats or booster seats based on their age, weight, and height until they reach a certain threshold, usually around 4 feet 9 inches tall. Adults and older children should always wear seat belts, regardless of age, to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident. Ensuring everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained is essential for safety.
The fine for not wearing a seat belt in Massachusetts is $25 for passengers over the age of 16. The driver can also receive a citation if any passenger under 16 is not wearing a seat belt.

I think its fine for you to not wear your seatbelt in any state.
In many states if you are over a certain age (usually 16) and you are sitting in the back seat, you are not legally required to wear a seatbelt. Apart from that I don't think there is any legal reason not to wear one. also in the state of Indiana you don't have to wear a seat belt if you drive a truck, you can also go to your family doctor and he can write you an exempt from wearing a seat belt like i did. just tell him something is wrong with your neck and it becomes painful after you wear the seat belt to long. it will look just like a prescription and you need to carry it in your car at all times. but it works perfect and is legal.
Depending on where you live, in most states (possibly all) any person(s) above the age of 16 whom aren't wearing the seatbelt get the ticket, not the driver. If the person who is without seatbelt is under the age of 16, then the driver gets the ticket.
No. But you will get a ticket. Like some signs say " Click it or ticket."Added: Going to court is ALWAYS an option for any traffic ticket,although you might be hard-pressed to offer testimony that you did, or did not, were wearing your seat belt.
In Illinois the law is that any child under the age of eight years old must be secured in a child safety seat. Any person over eight must be using a seat belt.

Well, honey, if 80% of California drivers wear seat belts, then the probability of one driver wearing a seat belt is 0.8. So, the probability of all three drivers wearing their seat belts would be 0.8 x 0.8 x 0.8, which equals 0.512 or 51.2%. So, there you have it, buckle up and enjoy the ride!
To repair the seat belt in a 2000 Daewoo, first, inspect the seat belt for any visible damage, such as frays or tears.

On your own property. First, it is NEVER a good idea to have a person ride in any vehicle without wearing a seat belt. Some states allow people over the age of 18 to ride in the back of a pickup, but laws vary by state.
Every age. Any person can be thrown out of a vehicle. It doesn't have to do with age, weight or height. That's why in most states it's illegal to drive without one.
