Michigan doesn't have a statewide ban on cell phone usage while driving, although some jurisdictions have restrictions. Check with your local government for information about possible limitations in your area.
Top Seat Belts
Everyone riding in the front seat of a vehicle must wear a seat belt. Those under 16 need to wear a seat belt no matter where they're sitting.
If a rider is detected not wearing a seat belt, state law allows police officers to pull the vehicle over just for that reason.
Top Child Car Seat Laws
When riding in a vehicle, children under four years old must be properly secured in an approved safety seat. Children weighing under 20 pounds must face the rear of the vehicle.
If you're in the market for one, you can shop online for a child car seat at any time. When ordering, be sure the car seat matches your child's height, weight and age.
Note: Children are best protected by sitting in the middle of the back seat. Rear-facing child seats shouldn't be used in the front seat of a vehicle with air bags.
Top Headlights
Headlights must be turned on from 30 minutes after sunset until 30 minutes before sunrise, and at any other time when visibility is reduced to under 500 feet.
High beams may not be used within 500 feet of approaching vehicles.
It's against the law to drive with only the parking lights illuminated.
Top Helmets
You must wear a helmet when riding on a motorcycle.
When riding at speeds of 35 mph or greater, you must wear a face shield or shatter-proof goggles. If the bike is equipped with a windshield, this requirement is waived.
Top Reporting Drunk Drivers
Unlike some states, Michigan doesn't have a single, centralized number to call to report drivers who appear to be inebriated. So, to report dangerous drivers, simply call 911.
Top Unattended Children
Although Michigan doesn't have any specific laws addressing the issue of leaving children unattended in a vehicle, it's considered to be child abuse if someone's reckless act causes serious physical harm to a child.
This also applies to instances when a person knowingly or intentionally puts a child in a dangerous situation, even if harm isn't actually done.
