UK PM Rishi Sunak apologises for removing car seat belt
London (TIP): British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has apologised for a “brief error of judgment” in removing his seat belt to film a social media video while driving to a destination in north-west England.
Sunak’s Downing Street spokesperson on January 19 said he had only briefly removed his seat belt and admits he made a mistake.
In the UK, passengers caught failing to wear a seatbelt while in a car, unless covered by a valid medical exemption, can be given an on-the-spot fine of 100 pounds, increasing to 500 pounds if the case goes to court. (PTI)
