Steve,

I talked to some of our police and CHP here and they told me that if the car was registered as before they had shoulder belts then the lap belt was ok. But I don't trust that as we are also having a huge push on giving tickets for seat belts. Same story. Counties need money, get it any way you can. I have just always worn mine because it is easier than pushing them aside and I feel they might give me a little more protection if I did ever have an accident. My 1965 Comet just has the lap belt and they can't see if I have it fastend or not and by the law they need a reason to pull you over more than I just wnated to check to see if you have your seat belt fastened. I always wear that one too as I just feel as if my pants are unhooked if the seat belts aren't fastened. Get old and get paranoid.

Ron
