Letter: Go after speeders, not seat belt violators

Saturday, Dec. 15, 2007 | 7:40 a.m.

I must be missing something. The Las Vegas Sun, in a Wednesday editorial, has come up with a brainstorm of an idea - to make driving without wearing your seat belt a primary traffic offense.

The Sun's editorial has figured that this would make us safer on the roads. But I would think that having the police go after speeders and tailgaters would be much safer than burdening the police with looking for seat belts. What will the Sun come up with next - that we all need to wear helmets so it would be safer?
