Now that’s Brisk, Baby!
A friend of mine was driving, and got pulled over by a police officer. One of the passangers in his car was not wearing a seatbelt. The police officer gave the driver a ticket for this.
My question is, who is reponsible (halachicly) to pay for this ticket?
Assuming the law is, that the driver is responsible to make sure his passengers wear seatbelts. Will this Halachicly be the same, or it is the passenger who is chayav.
If the passenger is over the age of 16 he is responsible. If he’s not the driver is.. before the engine starts running the driver has the responsibility to ensure all passengers are buckled up!
