NAPERVILLE, IL — Naperville police will increase patrols starting May 15 as part of a traffic safety initiative that coincides with the Memorial Day holiday.
During the initiative, part of the statewide "Click It or Ticket" campaign, police will be especially vigilant for seatbelt violations.

The increased patrols will take place during both daytime and nighttime hours. Naperville police warn that drivers violating seatbelt laws will be pulled over and ticketed.
The safety campaign is expected to last through May 26.
