Advice to Memorial Day motorists: 'Click It Or Ticket'
State law enforcement and public safety officials are telling motorists across Georgia to buckle-up, slow down, and drive sober this holiday weekend.
The Department of Transportation predicts that 18 motorists will die and close to 1,000 will be injured in road accidents from Friday to midnight on Monday.
State police plan on being out in-force statewide throughout the weekend. They’ll be checking cars making sure motorists are wearing seatbelts in their “Click-it-Or-Ticket” campaign.
Over last year’s Memorial Day weekend, nine of the 17 people killed on Georgia roads weren’t belted in, and there were eight alcohol-related deaths.
And, despite a 200-trooper shortage, a State Patrol official says they’re pulling administrative personnel away from their desks, and getting them out and patrolling over roads over the holiday period.
