50% of the installation of a scat belt violation alert system not to
exceed $250.
JUSTIFICATION:
While mandatory seatbelt laws have increased the use of
seatbelts and allowed officers to crack down on violators, it is
still very difficult to tell if a person is wearing their seatbelt or
not. This would provide a tax credit for people to install such
devices on their car in the hope this will increase seatbelt usage.
