I’m pretty sure it is. I beat my ticket showing that there was no way the officer could’ve seen what he claimed to see (they my seat belt buckle was hanging visibly). The buckle sits behind the side pillar when not worn and thus is not visible regardless of where it is hanging when unworn. That, plus I was driving a pickup and he in a car as well as I was to his left - literally no way for him to see a “flash of silver”.

I was wearing my seat belt at the time as I always do, but got accused of lying (by the officer). All told the ticket for that was going to be 180 plus (I think it was closer to 200 dollars). There was an explanation on the ticket referencing the statutes. I looked them up and they apply to all moving violations.

There is a table that lists some offenses, the base fine and all administrative fees. I'm pretty sure when I looked last year that the seatbelt ticket I got was going to be a lot more than 112 bucks, but that's what the table shows.
