It's All
About Law Enforcement Saving Lives and Preventing
Injuries!
The goal of the Click It or Ticket
Mobilization is not to give out tickets, but
rather to influence people to buckle up and prevent
injuries and fatalities. Research proves that the
certainty of a ticket and costly fines convinces
people to Click It. As the #1 leading cause of death
and disability for Americans between the ages of
4 and 34, motor vehicle crashes are a serious public
health problem. The average cost for a critically
injured survivor of a motor vehicle crash is estimated
at $1.1 million over a lifetime. This figure does
not even begin to reflect the physical and psychological
suffering of the victims and their families. A simple,
free, cost-effective means to prevent injury and
fatalities to you and your family is making sure
everyone buckles up, every trip, every time. It is
imperative that effective steps be taken to encourage
people to buckle up and buckle up their children.
The Click It or Ticket Mobilization plays
a critical role in the effort to keep people safe on
our roads and highways. Illinois is a proud proponent
of saving lives by encouraging motorists to buckle
up!
