The latest edition of the national Click It or Ticket seat belt campaign is underway, running through the end of the Thanksgiving weekend on Sunday

  Law enforcement agencies across the country will be out in force, specifically searching for drivers who are not using seat belts or who have children who are not in safety restraints, such as car seats.

Once again, the Nebraska Office of Highway Safety has awarded tens of thousands of dollars in grants to cover the costs of overtime to put more officers on the road.

71% of the 145 people killed in passenger vehicle accidents in Nebraska last year were not wearing seat belts.
