It may be a waste of effort for the police to go after seat belt violations - interfering with the course of natural selection. But drunk drivers kill and hurt other people. They need to get ticketed and when that fails, to get locked up or whatever it takes to stop them.

Unfortunately even the threat of losing their licence, vehicle, or life doesn't stop some, and every year hundreds are killed and injured as a result.
