What does a primary safety belt law let an officer do?
The rule
SC has a primary safety belt law: an officer may stop you just because the driver or a passenger isn't wearing a belt or a child isn't in a child seat.
SC's primary belt law lets an officer stop a driver when the driver or a passenger is unbelted, or a child isn't in a child seat.
From the SCDMV Driver's License Manual, page 4-6. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DMV have the final word.
