The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office is reminding drivers to buckle up as part of the national “Click It or Ticket” campaign. This campaign runs from May 16 to May 27, coinciding with the Memorial Day holiday.
Sgt. Ronald Stanton says this practice is not just safe but also the law. During this campaign, law enforcement agencies will be working together to ensure the message reaches all drivers and passengers.
A key focus of the “Click It or Ticket” campaign is nighttime enforcement, as Illinois crash data indicates higher rates of unrestrained fatalities at night.
