In what situation can you legally drive without a seatbelt?

The correct answer is the situation where the vehicle is not moving. When a vehicle is stopped, the occupant is not at risk of being ejected in an accident, as no forward motion is present. Because of this, the law recognizes that there is no safety benefit to wearing a seatbelt while the vehicle is stationary.

In contrast, other scenarios do not provide a valid reason for being unbuckled. For example, driving at lower speeds, such as under 30 km/h, does not eliminate the risk of injury in an accident, as even minor collisions can lead to serious consequences. Similarly, the location of driving, such as only in residential zones, does not matter when it comes to seatbelt laws since the requirement to wear a seatbelt is applicable regardless of speed or environment. Lastly, being accompanied by a learner driver does not exempt an occupant from safety laws; all passengers are required to wear seatbelts.
