Oklahoma Highway Safety Office Observes National “Click It or Ticket” Campaign
The “Click It or Ticket” campaign is a national effort to prevent car accident injuries and fatalities by encouraging drivers and passengers to “buckle-up.” Oklahoma, as well as many other states in the U.S. are increasing seat belt enforcement efforts during the campaign, which began on May 23 and ends on June 5.
According to SandSpringsLeader.com, officers from across northeastern Oklahoma will be focusing on citing motorists who are not wearing seat belts. Funding from the Oklahoma Highway Safety Office (OHSO) is providing for extra patrols and checkpoints, as well as overtime shifts. If a motorist is cited for not wearing their seat belt, they will have to pay $20, for each citation. Both drivers and passengers can be ticketed for not wearing their seat belt.
