if its your first time on a seatbelt charge id appeal that too, i got done and refused the fine arguing the ploice had got it wrong, i had no documents on me and had to appear at the station within 7 days, when there i asked about ph seat belt laws nobody new the answer, i phoned the council ,the same reply, i contacted the procurator fiscal and ended up with a warning

My step son used to work for the police in Manchester and he used to deal with speed camera fines. Some of theirs are set with NO margin so if you are only a small fraction over 30 MPH in a 30 zone you get a flash and they do take it all the way.
