[Spridgets] Safety - Seat Belts and Roll Bar Question

[Bill L]

Hello Tinydog,

     The reason I read the statutes is because I had a disagreement
     with a State Patrol Officer. He said any car made for or after
     the 1964 model year was required to have seat belts installed. I
     was under the impression that NO ONE could make safety equipment
     be retrofitted, and I KNEW that there was no FEDERAL LAW in place
     in 1964.Since mine is a '66 it is more than a moot point IF I were
      to be pulled over.

      Here is a link to the FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
      Standards) which shows, amoung other things the implementation
      dates.
