The driver is responsible but if the passenger is over 18 they too can get a ticket.
Talking about a double ticket.
Your husband could sue the passenger! Get your money, and lose a friend.
I just don't drive until everyone seat belt is on, or they can walk.

The driver is responsible, unless the passenger is an adult.
In that case the driver must have told the passenger to put on the seat belt, and the passenger must have refused to do so

Well I dont know if this is federal law or if its just in the state of California but the way I know it to be is the driver is responsible for anyone not wearing a seatbelt UNDER the age of 14 if someone in the car over the age of 14 is not wearing one then they are responsible and NOT the driver.
Hope this helps.

The driver is responsible for using the seat belt before moving (driving) the car. The driver ensures that all passengers are wearing seat belt before driving the vehicle. All passengers should wear seat belt before driving the vehicle.

Under UK law the driver is responsible to ensure all passengers under 14 years of age are belted in.
Passengers over 14 years of age are responsible for themselves, and can be fined.

In England, the individual passenger is responsible for their own seat belt. The driver is responsible for ensuring that children under 14 have their seat belt on.

This may settle the argument from the highway code:

It's basically saying that anyone under 14 - the driver is responsible
Anyone over 14 - the passenger is responsible
