Some driver has got the seatbelt clip clicked into the holder then wrapped the belt around the back of the seat.This stops the alarm going off and the red light on the dashboard coming on. so they can drive without the belt ON.
Why would you risk it?
1, You wouldn,t be insured
2, You could get fined
3, If an accident happens (you could be flying without wings!)

Well maybe not a trick, but here goes.

And it nackers up the belt.
Guy who drove my CF before I got it did this and completely knackered the belt up, now its constantly getting shut in the door and is rather loose on me, unless I manually wind it in.

Or you could have a belt clip cut out of scrapper motor.
Or you could just wear your belt
some years ago, when I was younger and more innocent, the agency sent me on a job with a very large Wiltshire tipper company. Imagine my surprise, when I climbed into my motor for the night, and when attempting to secure the seat belt, there was already an old plug in it. What is it with tipper drivers, that they seem to have an obsessive neex to break as many rules as they can??
Confession time, i’ve only started using the seat belt in the lorry in the last few years and thats only cos the old bill can make points make prizes for easy nicks like that, and are now doing so, they used to turn a blind eye at one time.
Not cos i’m an arse (i am) but having driven a bloody Volvo FM for ages with its wardrobe door mirrors the bog cleaner brought in from Ikea, and now with an MAN with equally stupid wardrobe doors mirrors, i like everyone else have had enough frights when losing ■■■■■■ vans let along bikes behind those mirrors so leaving the belt off makes it much easier to duck and dive about to see round the ridiculous things.
