[QUOTE="Big Babooba, post: 235665, member: 5402"] The DOT mandated seatbelt interlocks for passenger cars for the 1974 model year. You couldn't start a car unless you 1. Opened the driver's door 2. got in the seat 3. fastened the seat belt and 4. turned the key. If you deviated from this sequance in any way the car would not start and you would have to repeat the correct procedure. If you did everything correctly an still couldn't start the car, there was an overide button under the hood. My brother in law had a 74 Charger with this set up. What a nightmare it was. The DOT reversed itself a couple of months later from all the complaints and allowed dealers to remove the system. Can you imagine opening the hood everytime you shut off the package car engine? NO THANKS!!! [/QUOTE]
