Actually, this incident Is the first time I heard of a ‘paddy wagon’ having seatbelts.

None of them I have been in ever had any.

IIRC, the seat belts are a ‘new’ feature and available only on the latest vehicles(paddy wagons). That is to say, not all the paddy wagons in Baltimore have seat belts.

The same is probably true of most cities in the US.

Yes seat belts, and the injuries have been called the “nickel ride”.

There is no sense in pretending (making up falsehoods) that others don’t get injured, and that the vans don’t come with seat belts, those cops were supposed to seat belt him in.
