Washington and Idaho Launch 'Click It or Ticket' Campaign
- Several states including New Jersey, Texas, Tennessee, and Indiana launched coordinated 'Click It or Ticket' campaigns in May 2025 to enforce seat belt laws and improve road safety during the summer travel season.
- These campaigns arise from concerns about declining seat belt use, high numbers of unrestrained fatalities, and historically increased crashes between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
- Participating law enforcement agencies receive grant funding to conduct patrols, checkpoints, and enforcement targeting seat belt compliance, speeding, impaired driving, and Move Over law violations.
- For example, New Jersey granted $600,740 to 105 agencies, with 7,225 seat belt citations issued during last year’s campaign, while Texas issued over 600 seat belt violations and Indiana reports 93.6% seat belt compliance among drivers.
- The campaigns aim to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries by promoting consistent seat belt use as both a legal requirement and a proven life-saving measure during peak travel months.
