Frequently Asked Questions
What if I have a medical condition?
A medical certificate from your doctor exempting you from wearing a seatbelt is one of the strongest appeal grounds. The certificate should specify the condition and time period.
What if the camera image is wrong?
Seatbelt detection cameras use AI to identify non-compliance. If the image is unclear or you were wearing a seatbelt, you can request the evidence and appeal based on the image quality.
