Will the approach actually do anything, though ?
Most modern cars will complain loudly and continuously if you don't wear seat belts, until you wear seat belts.
And yet ... I have older relatives that bought a plug to insert into the seat belt socket so it will shut up.
And most likely one that that one of those older relative will die (and maybe kill too) in a car accident and I won't be allowed to say he died like he live: like a moron who not only drove without a seat belt but also actively deceived the security systems in the car.
The thing is: security systems should just make it impossible to do something unsafe. Otherwise it's all performative "security".
