LOCKPORT, IL — The Lockport Police Department is joining law enforcement agencies across the state for a “Click It or Ticket” campaign running May 15-26 during the Memorial Day travel period, the department shared in a news release.
“Buckle up every trip, every time,” said police. “Seat belts save lives, and we are committed to keeping our roads safe.”
Lockport officers will conduct high-visibility enforcement day and night, focusing on seat belt violations, police said. Illinois law requires all drivers and passengers to wear seat belts.
The “Click It or Ticket” initiative is funded with federal highway safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation.
