satyarao56 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 When I was doing my masters in USA I was arrested( i do not know if it is called arrest or not , as i was not put behind bars) as my friend was driving car with an expired drivers license. I was asked to sit in the police station for just 90 mins until the procedure of photo graphs and finger prints were done and then later released after paying the ticket for not wearing seat belt in the back seat. So should I keep Yes or No for the question “Have you ever been arrested or convicted for any offense or crime, even though subject of a pardon, amnesty, or other similar action?” Link to comment

Never heard that people do get arrested for not wearing a seat belt. If you were arrested then you should answer YES. Link to comment
JoeF Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 If you were taken to the police station, you were arrested. You have to answer yes to that question. This may have been just collateral damage, but it was an arrest nevertheless. Link to comment
