Click It or Ticket Safety Campaign reminds drivers and passengers to buckle up

The Chilton Police Department is joining law enforcement agencies across the state and nation to promote seat belt use and remind drivers of the lifesaving benefits of buckling up. The Click It or Ticket Seat Belt Safety Campaign runs from May 11-31 this year.

Buckling up is a simple action drivers and passengers can do to stay safe on the road, and wearing a seat belt is one of the most effective ways to reduce injuries and save lives during a crash. During the Click It or Ticket campaign, the Chilton Police Department joins officers throughout the state stepping up seat belt enforcement and education to prevent tragedies on our roads.

Seat belt use is one of the most effective ways to protect drivers and passengers from injury or death in a crash. In Wisconsin, preliminary numbers show 145 drivers and passengers who died in crashes in 2025 were not wearing a seat belt.

Wisconsin’s primary seat belt law allows law enforcement to stop and cite motorists for failing to wear a seat belt. Penalties are higher for transporting unrestrained children and passengers can also be cited. Failure to fasten a seat belt is among the most common traffic violations in Wisconsin.

Seat belts save lives, and everyone — front seat and back, child and adult — should make buckling up a habit. Traveling on the road without a seat belt is dangerous. We are asking friends and family to remind each other to buckle up and help us keep the roads safe.

The Click It or Ticket campaign coincides with the Memorial Day holiday weekend, which is the first long holiday weekend of summer. The roads are especially busy during this season, so officers will be out encouraging motorist to wear their seat belts.
