ABSTRACT:
An safety restraint non-compliance light to indicate when automotive passengers are not utilizing their seat belts, comprising, in combination, an automobile with a front left seat and a front right seat and a rear left seat and a rear right seat. A pressure indicator switch is located beneath each seat. Each seat generates a pressure responsive signal to indicate the presence of a passenger sitting thereon. A seat belt is provided with a female receptacle secured to one side of the passenger and a strap with a male projection positionable in the female receptacle on the other side of the seats and passengers. A switch is located interior of the female receptacle to indicate the coupling of the male projection to the female receptacle and thus the coupling and use of the seat belt. A light in the rear of the vehicle is adapted to be illuminated in response to at least one of the seats being occupied but the associated seat belt not being utilized and to be unilluminated when no occupied seat has an associated unbuckled seat belt.
