Yes, obviously.
Seriously though, you can't compare killing someone to briefly forgetting a seatbelt.
Exactly that!
I was watching traffic cops (or similar) the other day, and tbh that program just frustrates me. Slightly speeding/belt off/minor car defect they get fined etc. Yet there were two drunk drivers that crashed and got let off because by the time they had the accurate breath test it'd worn off. One guy who crashed into two other cars, one with a very young baby, and a woman who was not only drunk but on her bloody phone texting and rolled her 206cc on its roof....she cried, and got let off aswell! It's just ridiculous imo, that's much more dangerous than forgetting a belt, doing 33mph or a bulb out...but those things are easier to write fines for.
