<P> In 18 of the 50 states, the seat belt law is considered a secondary offense, which means that a police officer cannot stop and ticket a driver for the sole offense of not wearing a seatbelt . (One exception to this is Colorado, where children not properly restrained is a primary offense and brings a much larger fine .) If a driver commits a primary violation (e.g., for speeding) he may additionally be charged for not wearing a seatbelt . In most states the seat belt law was originally a secondary offense; in many it was later changed to a primary offense: California was the first state to do this, in 1993 . Of the 30 with primary seat belt laws, all but 8, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, and Texas, originally had only secondary enforcement laws . </P> <P> This table contains a brief summary of all seatbelt laws in the United States . This list includes only seatbelt laws, which often do not themselves apply to children; however, all 50 states and the District of Columbia have separate child restraint laws . Keep in mind these fines are the base fines only . In many cases considerable extra fees such as the head injury fund and court security fees can mark up the fine to almost five times as much in some cases . These are also "first offense" fines; a subsequent offense may be much higher . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> State </Th> <Th> Type of law </Th> <Th> Date of first law </Th> <Th> Who is covered </Th> <Th> Base fine before fees </Th> <Th> Seat Belt Usage </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> Primary Enforcement </Td> <Td> July 18, 1991 </Td> <Td> Age 15 + in front seats </Td> <Td> $25 </Td> <Td> 91.4% </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Alaska </Td> <Td> Primary Enforcement </Td> <Td> September 12, 1990 </Td> <Td> Age 16 + in all seats </Td> <Td> $15 ($25 actual) </Td> <Td> 86.8% </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Arizona </Td> <Td> Secondary Enforcement </Td> <Td> January 1, 1991 </Td> <Td> Age 8 + in front seats;
