The Hazelwood Police Department will be joining other statewide and national law enforcement agencies between May 24 and June 6 for an aggressive \u201cClick It or Ticket\u201d mobilization campaign to crack down on local safety belt law violators in order to reduce road fatalities.<\/p>\n
Nearly one in four Missourians still fail to regularly wear their safety belts when driving or riding in a motor vehicle.\u00a0 Seven out of ten Missourians killed in traffic accidents are found with the seat belts unbuckled.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery day, someone dies in a crash in Missouri because they were not buckled up,\u201d said Chief Carl Wolf of the Hazelwood Police Department.\u00a0 \u201cWe\u2019ll be out there around the clock to remind local drivers that seat belts can \u2013 and do \u2013 save lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNighttime drivers and vehicle passengers continue to be among those least likely to wear seat belts. Consequently, they are also among those most likely to die in motor vehicle crashes.\u00a0 That\u2019s why the Hazelwood Police Department is supporting enhanced nighttime enforcement of seat belt laws during the May 24-June 6, Click It or Ticket campaign,\u201d noted Chief Wolf.<\/p>\n
\u201cLocal motorists should be prepared for stepped up Click It or Ticket activities that will occur around the clock.\u00a0 If law enforcement finds you on the road unbuckled anytime or anywhere within the City of Hazelwood limits, you can expect to get a ticket \u2013 not a warning.\u00a0 No excuses or exceptions,\u201d added Chief Wolf.<\/p>\n
Even though people should wear seat belts during the Click It or Ticket campaign, scheduled from May 24 to June 6, this should become a year-round safety habit..<\/p>\n
