A vehicle employing a method of detecting seatbelt status in a vehicle may include detecting occupants entering the vehicle and taking first seat images with a camera upon detecting the vehicle may begin travel imminently. The first seat images are analyzed to detect the occupants, with LEDs activated on seatbelt assemblies for seats with the occupants. Activation of the LEDs is changed for respective seats with the occupants upon detecting seatbelt engagement for the corresponding seat, and second seat images are taken upon detecting that the vehicle is shifted into gear. The first and second seat images are compared, and an alert is activated when the comparison of first and second seat images indicates improper seatbelt use for one of the seats with the occupants. Fault conditions may also be detected.
