Click It or Ticket isn't just about writing tickets—it's about keeping Texans safe on the road. Federal and state officials set aside funds we put to work to alert the public about buckling up. One way to do that is to send more officers out to help remind motorists to buckle up. Websites like these, TV and radio ads plus news articles and shows also help remind motorists to make buckling up a habit, too.
Why should you? Buckling up is your best bet to prevent serious injury or death in a crash. Crashes where the victims aren't wearing safety belts can be pretty bad. People who aren't buckled up are often thrown out of their car or truck, and sometimes the vehicle rolls over them.
Why else? Because all motorists under 17 must be buckled up properly, no matter where they’re sitting in a car, SUV or truck. Driver and front seat passengers always have to be buckled up, regardless of how old they are. But no matter what the law says, the safest way to ride is buckled up.
