Q: a police officer motioned for me to put seatbelt on and i did. then 30 secs later he pulls me over and gives me a ticket
A: That's the same as the police officer motioning/telling you over his speaker to slow down. That doesn't mean that he can't give you a ticket later for speeding at that time. So yes you can still get a ticket for what happened.
A: The form of this question reminds me of the meme with the little baby saying, "So the cop shouted, 'pull over,' and I answered, 'no, cardigan!' Instead of hazarding a guess, because I am not entirely certain of the question asked here, it might be worthwhile to arrange a consultation to discuss this in greater detail with an attorney.
