“Click It or Ticket” campaign comes to Tyler

TYLER — TxDOT has kicked off its annual “Click It or Ticket” seat belt campaign with law enforcement increasing efforts to enforce compliance May 24 – June 6. The campaign tour made a stop in Tyler Tuesday to remind drivers and passengers to wear their seat belts. Officials say unbuckled vehicle occupant deaths increased in 2020. According to TxDOT, putting on a seat belt only takes a few seconds and doing so reduces the risk of dying by up to 45% for people in the front seat of passenger cars and up to 60% for people in pickup trucks.
