As summer kicks off and families hit the road for vacation, the Tennessee Highway Safety Office partners with local law enforcement to remind motorists to “Click It or Ticket.” From May 22 through June 4, 2023, participating agencies across the state will increase seat belt enforcement as part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) nationwide mobilization.
The primary seat belt law allows law enforcement to stop a vehicle if the driver and passengers are not properly restrained. Law enforcement can also set up checkpoints.
Motorists are reminded that participating agencies will be taking a no-excuses approach to seat belt law enforcement, writing citations day and night. So, Click It or Ticket.
