Abstract
A seat belt switching device for preventing the running of a vehicle optionally having a remote starting ability, key operated ignition switch, neutral safety switch, seat belt switch, solenoid and starter, having a wiring of the seat belt switch such that the solenoid is not actuated unless and until the seat belt switch is engaged indicative of a seat belt being connected such that if not connected, the vehicle does not run. The seat belt switch has a fastened and unfastened position such that when in a fastened position a circuit is closed to the solenoid, actuating the starter and when in an unfastened position the circuit is open to the solenoid thereby failing to engage the solenoid and failing to permit operation of the vehicle. In one embodiment, the opening and closing occurs after the neutral safety switch. In another, the opening and closing occurs prior to the neutral safety switch.
