Police say seatbelts are proven to prevent injury or death in a motor vehicle accident, however it is worrying that traffic officers continue to book people for failing to wear a seatbelt.

Forty-one bookings were recorded, and again the Western Division had the highest number of bookings with 38 reports.

The Western, Southern and Eastern Divisions all recorded two cases each.
