The Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety is joining with state and local law enforcement May 19 – June 1 in the national “Click It or Ticket” enforcement campaign to crack down on buckling up. Missouri’s seat belt usage remains relatively unchanged at 80 percent, and consistently below the national average of 87 percent.
“The best thing motorists can do to protect themselves while traveling in a motor vehicle is to buckle their seat belts and to make sure everyone else in the vehicle is buckled as well,” stated Colonel Ronald K. Replogle, superintendent of the Highway Patrol. “We want to encourage everyone to wear a seat belt every time they get into a car or truck. This type of campaign and enforcement effort is just one method used to heighten awareness about the importance of wearing a seat belt and saving lives. Highway Patrol troopers will continue to take a zero tolerance approach in the enforcement of seat belt and child restraint laws throughout the year in our effort to reduce injuries and save lives."
In 2013, 757 people were killed in traffic crashes on Missouri's roadways, and 63.4 percent of those were not wearing seat belts.
The Missouri Highway Patrol will be enforcing these laws during “ Click it or Ticket” May 19th through June 1st on our Missouri Highways.
