An illustrated view of a vehicle with an exemplary system for providing external notification of seat belt status. The external system is useful for vehicles relating a condition of the seat belt to public safety officials such as police, state troopers, etc. With the external status being visible, the safety of all who are on the road and in the vehicle is enhanced. The external status allows public safety officials to have visible notification to the seat belt status and provides probable cause to remedy the situation. The vehicle has one or more seat belts configured to have a sensor. The sensor detects the condition of the seat belts. The sensor sends the detected condition to one or more exterior seat belt lights configured on the front and back of the vehicle to notify public safety officials of the seat belt status.
