The Nevada State will be Joining Forces with other law enforcement agencies around Nevada for a
Seatbelt Enforcement Event. The Click It or Ticket Event will take place from
May 13, 2023 – May 31, 2023.
This Click It or Ticket Campaign aims to increase law enforcement participation by coordinating highly
visible patrols across the State of Nevada. While looking for seatbelt violations and educating the
motoring public about seat belts and how significant they are during a vehicle crash.
As of April 2023, Nevada has had 107 fatalities, 20 of those being unrestrained motorists. That’s 20
lives that could possibly be alive today if they had been restrained.
According to the National Highway Traffic & Safety (NHTSA) in 2017, there were a total of 10,076
unrestrained passengers and drivers who were killed in crashes in the United States. In that same year,
55% of the vehicle occupants were killed at nighttime not wearing their seatbelts. Law Enforcement
agencies will be taking a no excuse approach to seat belt enforcement and will be issuing citations
throughout the day and night.
The Nevada State Police, Highway Patrol remains dedicated to bringing the number of fatalities on our
roadways to zero through increasing public awareness about the dangers of speeding, driving unrestrained,
impaired driving, reckless driving and more. More information about safe driving and the state’s Zero
Fatalities goal is available online at www.ZeroFatalitiesNV.com.
