    If I received a no seat belt ticket by a state officer in louisanna will that ticket be linked/reported to the federal dot and show up on my record once it is put into the system?

    In the old days you say thank you for such a ticket, now the fines are larger and it does show on your CSA.

    Yeah had I figured nowadays they were capable to do that. You can't fight a speeding ticket really would it be worth it to fight a seat belt ticket? It was at night I was wearing my seat belt as witnessed by the person riding with me. Without imcreminating myself the ticket was supposedly to take the place of another violation. Has anyone fought a seat belt ticket and won?

    Did the officer do a DOT inspection? If not ... they're no CSA points, just the ticket.

    This is where I get diffrence answers and get confused. Is this a grey area or black and white issue. It was a local police officer in the county or city I was in.
