The reference to “simple thing” almost certainly means the seat belt.
Glad I'm not in FL anymore. Shortly before we left I got pulled over for no seat belt. $116.00 ticket. It's $10.00 here in MO and they won't pull you over just for that. You only get the no seat belt ticket when they pull you over for something else and you're not wearing one. Most people here drive around without one. I wear one when I'm doing 55 on these hilly curvy two lane highways but pop it off when I get into town and am doing 25-35 mph. I wear it on the interstate too.
This is over a seat belt?
