EMPHASIS: Troop H Announces Click It Or Ticket Enforcement Effort


Captain Duane L. Robinson, commanding officer of Troop H, St. Joseph, announces a “Click It Or Ticket” enforcement operation on February 24, 2012. Members of the Missouri State Highway Patrol will be conducting the operation in all 15 counties of Troop H.
The Patrol will continue its zero tolerance policy for seat belt use throughout this operation to raise seat belt awareness and compliance. The campaign is part of a national program, in conjunction with the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety and other enforcement agencies to aggressively pursue safety belt enforcement.
Captain Robinson stated, “We want motorists to wear their seat belt not only because it is the law, but also because they see the value of the seat belt’s life saving capability.”
