Crazybrit – that’s only if the person who is over 14 is sitting in the back seat. The driver is responsible for the passenger in the front seat because he is able to see if the passenger next to him is wearing a seatbelt or not and if not he should stop the car, but the driver doesnt have any control over what the passengers do in the seats behind him because he cant see and therefore if they are over 14 they are responsible to pay themselves. i guess if they’re under 14, though the driver hasnt got control over what they do he should probably be making sure they’re all strapped in before starting to drive.
