Spring SAFE Enforcement

The Kansas Department of Transportation and the SAFE Program will hold a two-week seat belt enforcement beginning March 24 and ending on April 4, focusing on drivers and their occupants.
Enforcement of seat belt laws is the most effective way to encourage seat belt use and ultimately save lives. Various methods have been used to educate teens and adults about the dangers of driving unbelted.
We have learned that nothing impacts human behavior more than vigorous enforcement.
Please use your local radio, newspapers, TV stations, and/or social media to announce the upcoming enforcement. By promoting the enforcement, there should be no surprises. Our hope is everyone will take heed and buckle up, so no citations are necessary.
