The Holiday Enforcement Period will take place from Friday, May 22 at 6 p.m. through Monday, May 25 at 11:59 p.m. During this time, CHP officers will be conducting focused enforcement efforts to address reckless driving and promote seat belt safety for all occupants.

Please ensure that you and your passengers are properly buckled, and take a moment to verify that car seats are correctly installed.

One decision can change everything.

A seat belt may seem small, but in a crash, it can mean the difference between life and death. Too many lives are lost every year because someone chose not to buckle up.

Buckle up. Every seat. Every trip. Every time.
