Beer Gets Seatbelt, Kid Doesn't

Posted May 13, 08 5:28 PM CDT in Crime & Courts,  World 

(Newser) – An Australian man has been fined after buckling up his beer but letting a 5-year-old child ride sitting on the floor of his car. "The concern is about people's priorities," a police spokesperson told the Brisbane Times, adding, "It is very unusual to see someone go to the trouble of strapping in a carton of beer instead of a small child. That is the shocking thing."
