Willowbrook Police Department

05/27/2026

The Willowbrook Police Department participated in the Memorial Day 2026 “Click It or Ticket” enforcement campaign aimed at increasing seat belt use and keeping roads safe during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.

“Thanks to the efforts of our officers, more drivers and passengers were reminded to buckle up, slow down, and put the phone down, helping to prevent injuries and save lives,” said Deputy Chief Gerard Wodka. During the campaign, officers addressed an increase in speeding, seat belt, and distracted driving violations through proactive traffic enforcement efforts. The campaign’s success reflects law enforcement's commitment to roadway safety and reinforces the message that buckling up saves lives.

The “Click It or Ticket” initiative is funded with federal highway safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation. For more information on safe driving practices, visit ItsNotaGameIllinois.com.

This Memorial Day, the Willowbrook Police Department honors and remembers the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. 🇺🇸

Their courage, dedication, and selflessness will never be forgotten.

As we spend time with family and friends today, we encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day and remember those who gave everything for the freedoms we enjoy each day.

From all of us at the Willowbrook Police Department, thank you to our fallen heroes and the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.

We wish everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

This Memorial Day, the Village pauses to honor the heroes who never made it home. Behind every flag flies a story of courage, sacrifice, and a family forever changed. All gave some, but some gave all. Their service was not just a duty, it was a sacrifice made for generations they would never meet and freedoms they would never fully enjoy themselves. Today and every day, we remember those brave men and women with deep gratitude and lasting respect. May we never forget the cost of the freedoms we are privileged to live each day.
