What is a moving violation in Michigan?

I just got a ticket for driving without a seatbelt on. I’m tempted to just pay the fine and be done with it, but I’m worried about points going on my record. Can you tell me what’s considered a moving violation in Michigan?

Of course! Moving violations in Michigan include actions like speeding, running a red light, or
texting and driving
.
So, the good news is you won’t get points on your record since a seatbelt ticket is a non-moving violation in the state.
While you won’t see points on your license from a seatbelt ticket, it will go on your driving record as an infraction. This means that if your insurance provider finds out about it, you could see your
