Each state has their own statutes and laws surrounding points for traffic violation. Some states do not even have point systems while most others do. Most states would not put a seat belt ticket onto your record as a point, but some may. You would have to check with your state’s Department of Motor Vehicles to find out.
However, in many states, if you were cited for having a passenger under the age of 16 years old in your car not wearing a seat belt, you could be cited for as much as 3 points that would go on your record. However, seat belt ticket costs generally adhere to different localities.
