Memorial Day is one of the busiest travel holidays in the nation, and the Chanute Police Department is urging all drivers and passengers on the roads to buckle up. During Click It or Ticket, drivers will be met with extra enforcement by the agency. Click it or Ticket begins May 18, and will end on June 1.
They will be on the lookout for the unrestrained drivers, passengers, and children traveling on the roads.
“Your seat belt could be what saves you and those riding with you. Insist that everyone in the vehicle is retrained before you start.” Police Chief Chris Pefley said. “I also want people to know that in the interest of saving lives, The Chanute Police Department is committed to ticketing and educating the violators of adult seat belt and child safety laws, as well as other traffic infractions because we want you to be as safe as possible on your travels.”
