Correct answer
- Rear-seat passengers don't have to wear seat belts.
- If your vehicle has both lap belts and shoulder belts, wear both.
- If you are in an accident, your chances of being hurt or killed will be greatly reduced if you wear a safety belt.
Explanation
Montana law requires every occupant (including the driver) of a moving vehicle to wear a safety belt or suitable child restraint. A driver who violates the law will be fined $20. Studies have shown that if you're in an accident, your chances of being hurt or killed will be greatly reduced if you're wearing a safety belt.
