Washington state authorities shared a photo Wednesday of a man’s unexpected crash wound, taking the moment to stress the need for people to wear seatbelts.
Dubbed the “Not A Tattoo” mark, Washington State Patrol Trooper Brian Moore shared a photo of the red outline that resembles a seatbelt buckle on a person’s body.

“Driver was lucky to receive only minor injuries after being involved in a collision w/o wearing a seat belt,” Moore tweeted. “Here's proof it was hanging by his side! #BuckleUp It could save your life!”
The man was ultimately levied a fine for violations related to the incident, Moore told the outlet.
