Britain’s prime minister was fined because of this Instagram video.

There’s a long history of internet posts getting people into legal trouble, but this entry is unusual because it’s Britain’s prime minister Rishi Sunak.

This promotional video on his Instagram showed him riding in a car without a seatbelt on. The New York Times reports that violation can result in a fine of up to  £500 (about $620 US), and said Sunak’s office confirmed he would pay without specifying an amount.
