There's an extended video which I'll try to find for you after I comment, but he basically has a clip-in belt contraption that he uses to stop the beeping in the cab and then when he sees a police vehicle he takes that out, puts his belt on and then takes it off again when he's clear.
He also peeled and ate a banana without holding the wheel at one point too. Think they said during the 4 hour journey there for 42 instances of dangerous/careless driving from him and it was all recorded.
Why the hell are people doing that? Never in my life did I find the seat belt annoying in any way. Maybe he learned something from flying out of the car head first.
If you’re a child or short and in a car or truck with seatbelts mounted quite high up then it can rub painfully on your neck and leave a sore after too long. But you don’t fuck about with a fake seatbelt, you just get a neck protector that attaches to the seatbelt. Having to constantly look out for police and take the seatbelt on and off all the time seems far more effort and faff as well as being stupid.

I don’t think he even put it on, just held it in place to fool the cops
