The Directorate of Emergency Services is joining local and national law enforcement officers and highway safety advocates all across the country for the 2011 national Click It or Ticket seat belt enforcement mobilization May 23 through June 5.

During the mobilization, installation law enforcement officers will establish checkpoints across the installation to detect motorists who fail to wear their seat belts.

High-visibility enforcement such as the Click It or Ticket mobilization is credited with increasing the national belt usage rate from 58 percent in 1994 to an observed usage rate of 85 percent in 2010.  Seat belt use saves thousands of lives each year across America. In 2009 alone, seat belts saved 12,713 lives nationwide.

Remember this May 23 to June 5: It’s Click It or Ticket. Buckle up and encourage your loved ones to do the same. You’ll save the cost of a ticket and may even save a life.
