Is it true if an old car wasn't manufactured with seatbelts that it isn't against the law to not be wearing

it in that vehicle???Is it true if an old car wasn't manufactured with seatbelts that it isn't against the law to not be wearing
Yup.....





It is exempt... just like old, pre-1970's era cars with out emissions control are exempt from Federal emission control laws.Is it true if an old car wasn't manufactured with seatbelts that it isn't against the law to not be wearing
That is correct. The old cars are grandfathered in.
It's called the grandfather clause, it applies to almost everything I've seen hotels with one communal bathroom because that is the way they were built then grandfathered in and never closed for business in over 100 years. A salvage car rebuilt may be different.
yeah your OK. and if it only has a lap belt, then your OK as well. but i would strongly advise getting them installed. i know it doesn't do much for the ascetic beauty, but neither does your face imprint in the wheel
true


But for safety and piece of mind ..


I had NOS seatbelts installed in my son 1970 Superbee
yes
Nope that is not true. If you have an old car with no seat belts, or the seat belts that are not up-dated, then by Law you need to install up-dated seat belts, in that old vehicle. Especially, if you drive it.
Yes, you need a seatbelt at ALL times. I like this law a lot, it will prevent many deaths.
back in the day, they didnt have seatbelts in cars, so if this car does not have seatbelts, than you cant wear it, simple
yes, the classics are exempt
True for North Carolina.
Yes.
