When must you wear a seatbelt?

  1. From sunset to sunrise

  2. While driving in rural areas

  3. Anytime you are the driver or a passenger

  4. When the speed limit is above 45 mph

The correct answer is: Anytime you are the driver or a passenger

You must wear a seatbelt at all times while driving or riding as a passenger in a vehicle, regardless of the time of day, location, or speed limit. Option A is incorrect because sunset and sunrise have nothing to do with wearing a seatbelt. Option B is incorrect because driving in rural areas does not make you exempt from wearing a seatbelt. Option D is incorrect because the speed limit does not determine whether or not you need to wear a seatbelt - it is a safety measure that should be followed at all times. Option C is the only choice that is specific and accurate.
