I hope I am not the only one wondering about this - why does Avis click the seat belts for all the seats in the car? Is it also a criteria for "cleanliness"? I personally find it a little silly and sometimes annoying.

Is it to "prove" that seat belt is present and functional?
Some cars also have sensors that will beep forever if there is weight on the passenger seat and the seatbelt is not buckled.
