M5 F10 passenger seatbelt sensor

Hi. I've got a quick question for you guys. Does 2011 M5 Uk spec have passenger seatbelt sensor? My car does not alarm if passenger doesn't buckle up. No light on the dashboard or chime. Even after long distances. I've done some coding and this option is NOT coded out. And if the car indeed has it and it's not working what can be causing it? Can it be dangerous for passenger in case of a collision (no airbags deploying, no seatbelt pre-tensioning etc.)?
Thanks for any replies

standard in UK
nothing wrong
car only cares about driver, so if passenger is not buckled up it does not annoy you or him

Hehe yeah........this is not like a Peugeot 508......wherein there is a seatbelt alert chime if a rear passenger takes the seatbelt off

Thanks for your replies guys. I was getting worried cause I think I've seen a thread somewhere about faulty sensor mats in regular 5 series and thought that M5 would have one as well. And since mine wasn't alarming I thought it's faulty or something
