West Virginia (WOAY) State officials are reminding drivers to buckle up as another Click It or Ticket enforcement campaign gets underway.
The West Virginia Governor’s Highway Safety Program is partnering with law enforcement across the state for a high-visibility seat belt enforcement campaign running August 7-24.
Officials say seat belts reduce the risk of fatal injury by 45%, yet nearly half of passenger vehicle fatalities in West Virginia involved people who were not wearing one.
Drivers caught without a properly fastened seat belt face a $25 citation with no additional court costs.
The campaign aims to improve seat belt use and reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities on West Virginia roadways.
