Enough said.

Not true. The driver is resoponsible for teh front seat
passenger - those in the back seats are responsible for
themselves.

That is complete rubbish.

It's also the law.

see *http://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Road_Tr...Law/Seat_Belts

Front seat passenger - driver's responsibility.
Rear seat (adult) passenger - passenger's responsibility.

It's different if the passenger is a child for obvious reasons.

You have just posted a link that contradicts your statement. Anyone
over 14 is responsible for wearing their own seat belt. It does not
matter if they are sat in the front or back seats.

Look again at the "Who is responsible" column.

In every case it is the driver who is responsible.
The one exception is for an adult rear seat passenger - there the
passenger is responsible.

You are either a thick **** or you suffer from dyslexia (and that is not an
easy word to spell).

No Adam he's right, that's how it reads.
