Under West Virginia law, which occupants of a vehicle must wear safety belts or suitable child restraints?

Explanation

Under West Virginia law, the driver, all front-seat passengers, and all rear-seat passengers under 18 years of age must wear safety belts or appropriate child restraints. It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that all such passengers are suitably restrained. (In some cases, an exception to this rule may be issued for medical reasons, and proof of such a condition may be required of the driver.) However, even rear-seat passengers who are at least 18 years old should wear safety belts anyway. Safety belts have been proven to save lives ? even in the rear seat.
