We need to “unleash hell” about quite a few things these days. Some commenters sound a little worried for your grandmother, but I don’t think they should be. as you said, she’s a tough lady. I should imagine that in 90 years she has overcome much tougher problems than a seat belt ticket.

The ticket aside, the bigger price she will pay is if your grandmother is injured in an auto accident. Wait and see how well that adjuster shaves down the claim based on her proven failure to wear a seat belt and even though she has never driven a day in her life she will now bear a percentage of the responsibility for her injuries.

I pleaded not guilty to a $37 seat belt ticket about a month ago. I’m waiting for the state to decide whether or not to prosecute. Seat belt laws are one of my pet peeves. Everyone who gets a ticket for not wearing one should help overload the system by pleading not guilty.

As much as I agree with you, I fear you may be asking for the dear old woman to have her front door smashed in and being tasered by the tax feeders if she doesn’t show up in court.
Good luck.

I will be happy to “unleash Hell” alongside you.
