Billy Ray has issued an apology for failing to buckle up when he and daughter Miley were riding in the back seat of a Range Rover. The scene was shown around the country as a part of the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour 3D Movie.

He says, “We got caught up in the moment of filming, and we made a mistake and forgot to buckle our seatbelts. Seatbelt is extremely important.”

The mistake was noticed by editors of Consumer Reports. They said, “It seems to us that Miley, her father, and Disney had a perfect opportunity to help influence teens and counteract - rather than encourage - this trend. Then again, as Hannah herself sings, ‘Everybody makes mistakes.’”
