Would you suggest to go for a trial for plead guilty with explanation

This was a passenger in the rear seat, and ticket is for $240 with no demerit points. It does not affect the insurance.

If you go to trial, you will most likely offered a plea deal which could reduce the fine at least by 40%. I know that it could cost half a day's woth work but I would go to trial to get the experience of overall court system here.
But thanks for posting, I guess most of us take it easy on seat belts for the passengers on rear seats especially in minivans.
But looks like they are now coming to the levels of traffic hawaldar to increase their revenues....man there is not enough justification to have that many number of cops in the force.

Have you guys thought of the safety remnifications when travelling without the seat belts? Please pay the fine and make it safer for your family.

I see rear passengers don't wear seat belt most of the times but drivers always. What is the reason for that? Is the requirement different for the different type of vehicles? Is it mandatory for the rear passengers to wear seat belt not matter what type of vehicles they are sitting in?

Here it is, from the MTO site:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One person, one seat belt

Every person travelling in a motor vehicle must wear a seat belt or use a child safety seat. The penalty for seat belt infractions is a fine between $200 and $1,000. Convicted offenders will receive two demerit points.

That is right but even then passengers (16+) on rear seats hardly wear seat belts in cars. Drivers are so much responsible but rear passengers are not.
Any time I took a taxi I was never forced by the driver to wear seat belt unless I sit on the front seat.
