Sheriff Office Will Have Seatbelt Checkpoints!
The Calcasieu Parish Sheriffs Department is serious about "Click it or Ticket". The office has given fair warning to all motorist that Seatbelt Checkpoints will be up and open for business this Friday (27th)
From the CPSO:
On Friday, January 27, the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office will be conducting a seat belt checkpoint at an undisclosed location in the parish.
“Conducting these checkpoints is a vital part in an overall effort to ensure the safety of our citizens,” says Sheriff Tony Mancuso. “It has been proven that wearing a seat belt can save a life.”
“Also remember there is a law in Louisiana that mandates all passengers in a vehicle to be buckled up, even those in the back seat,” says Sheriff Mancuso.
These checkpoints are funded by the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission.
