Prime minister receives 'fixed penalty' for not wearing seatbelt in moving car

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has been issued with a “conditional offer of fixed penalty” by police. The censure comes after Mr Sunak failed to wear a seatbelt while filming a social media clip in the back of a moving car.

It's the second police fine that Mr Sunak has paid in less than a year. As chancellor he also received a fine for attending a birthday party for Boris Johnson on June 19, 2020.

On Friday (January 20) Lancashire Constabulary said a 42-year-old man from London was issued with a conditional offer of a fixed penalty following a video circulating on social media showing a passenger not wearing a seatbelt in a moving car in the county.
