Although I can't say much about the other laws, this woman did more than break a seatbelt law.  I would say she should be charged with "reckless endanderment".  



She put her children in a dangerous situation.  Since the kids are likely too young to know to do up their own seatbelts, she need to seatbelt her kids.  Even if she had been in a minor accident, it is likely that these children would have been seriously injured or killed.  Even at 10 miles an hour, these kids would become projectiles in an accident.



What if she let her kids play with a loaded gun?  Then you would want her to be arrested for "reckless endangerment".  As far as I'm concerned she put her kids in the same danger.



Don't extrapolate out to all other broken laws because this is more than a minor "seatbelt" infraction.
