North Dakota Vision Zero reminds everyone to Buckle UP
This November, Vision Zero is reminding North Dakotans to buckle up every seat, every trip, every time.
As part of the Click It or Ticket campaign, law enforcement agencies statewide will have increased patrols Nov. 1–Dec. 15, watching for unbelted drivers and passengers. Wearing a seat belt is the single most effective way to protect yourself in a crash, reducing the risk of fatal injury by nearly half.
Everyone has a role in preventing serious injuries and saving lives. Make safety your priority:
- Wear Your Seat Belt: Buckle up before every trip, whether you’re traveling across town or heading home for the holidays.
- Check Every Seat: Make sure everyone in your vehicle is buckled up, including passengers in the back seat.
- Protect Your Youngest Passengers: Secure children in the appropriate car seat or booster seat.
- Make It a Habit: Buckling up takes seconds and could save your life.
