Sec. 30124. Buzzers indicating nonuse of safety belts

    A motor vehicle safety standard prescribed under this chapter may 
not require or allow a manufacturer to comply with the standard by using 
a safety belt interlock designed to prevent starting or operating a 
motor vehicle if an occupant is not using a safety belt or a buzzer 
designed to indicate a safety belt is not in use, except a buzzer that 
operates only during the 8-second period after the ignition is turned to 
the ``start'' or ``on'' position.
