Doesn't sound like a moving violation that would cause a points deduction against your license.
"Seat belts are a secondary offense in Ohio, meaning you must be pulled over for committing a moving violation to be cited for failure to wear a seat belt."
Ohio Highway Patrol has no tolerance policy for seat belt violations.

There are many ways to get out of a ticket. I haven't had a ticket since I was 12....

Thanks for the information. Just kinda wanted some reassurance haha
some of us would rather take the ticket than give oral stimulation.

look on the back of ticket for options. you may be able to go to school to have ticket dismissed. not sure about points as each state is different.
Should probably be fine as it’s a non-moving violation. But it sounds like the ticket is legit as a secondary offense from the article @Oak posted:
“For a simple front license plate, I’m more inclined to give a warning for that, and just issue the seat belt citation,” he said. “We are pretty much all the time always looking for seat belt violations.”
The officer probably verbally warned you about your speed, right? Sounds like they don’t have to actually ticket the primary offense for the secondary to stick. Officer still did you a solid not ticketing on the 10 over.
Seatbelt ticket would still suck if you’ve gotta pay a fat court cost fee on top of the ticket. For my last ticket I sent a traffic lawyer to court for $100 and went on with my day. They got the ticket dismissed. Court costs get thrown out with it. Well worth the $$.
Don’t ever settle for a ticket reduction mill lawyer who might cost like $25-$50 less. Pay a little more for a dude who’ll step up to the DA and tell them they won’t be satisfied with a mere reduction.

Ignorance of the board laws is not a plea. I like you, just a verbal warning.

I know buddy, sometimes I need the seatbelt off to scratch back there while I am driving.
