The law, country wide in the US, is that you must wear your seatbelt at all times or you can receive a ticket and/or fine. Arkansas law requires all children under the age of fifteen years who are passengers in a motor vehicle to be buckled-up. Furthermore, children younger than six years of age and weighing less than sixty pounds must be restrained in approved safety seats. Arkansas is among a group of states that require seat belt use by drivers and front seat passengers. State law requires police to have a reasonable cause other than a seat belt violation to stop a vehicle and cite a violator. However, an unrestrained child in a moving motor vehicle is considered a primary violation allowing police to stop the vehicle without another cause.

In Tennessee, all drivers and passengers are required to wear seat belts while the vehicle is in motion. Children under 9 years old must be properly restrained in a child safety seat. Failure to comply with these laws can result in fines and penalties.

Why is it the law to wear a seat belt in cars and trucks and vans?

In the old days seatbelts were optional so most people never wore them. Unfortunately a lot of people died in car accidents. Most people who died in car accidents didn't wear their seatbelts. In the late 80's the government past the law that children had to wear their seatbelts but adults didn't have to. A few months or a few years later they past a law that adults had to wear their seatbelts. Seatbelts save lives but there's still a chance that you can die in a car crash anyway but it reduces your chances by 80%.
