Illinois To Increase Fine For Child Seat Belt Law

It seems unbelievable to me that children are still left unbelted. Apparently it is still a problem in Illinois as Governor Quinn is set to sign a bill that would increase the fines for these violations.

According to the Chicago Tribune, Illinois drivers would be fined $75 for not properly securing children eight years and younger, up from $50. Subsequent offenses would carry a $200 fine.

First-time offenders could have the fine waived if they complete a training course on the proper installation and use of safety seats.

“The idea is to encourage education about proper use,” said Grant Klinzman, a spokesman for Quinn’s office.

I guess this is necessary or the legislature would not be taking this preventative. Of course, this blogger recommends everyone wear a seat belt, despite your age.

If you or someone you know has been involved in a Chicago Car Accident or Chicago truck accident , then call Chicago accident attorney Aaron Bryant for a free consultation at 312-588-3384 or go to the firm website at www.BLGCHICAGO.com
