OUR CURRENT FOCUS
Buckle Up Pennsylvania May Mobilization
2013 “Click It Or Ticket’ Mobilization
May 20th to June 9, 2013
Buckle UP PA is renewing our commitment for the 2013 “Click It Ticket” Mobilization to save lives by taking Three Simple Steps.
1. Enforce belt laws.
2. Educate occupants.
3. Increase belt use.
We believe we can help reduce the number of lives lost due to unrestrained passenger vehicle occupants by following these three steps.
BUPA also believes that a strong enforcement is the key to success in this Click It or Ticket mobilization. We will undertake a new enforcement strategy for the CIOT Mobilization requiring all participating grantees to solely enforce the Pennsylvania Traffic Laws. Traffic Enforcement Zone (TEZ) Details, Safety Checkpoints and Roving Patrols will be used to conduct seat belt enforcement. Enforcement Agencies will be asked to conduct 75% of their enforcement activities during nighttime hours. BUPA will not fund non -enforcement activities, but will be supportive of our partners who are providing both education and public awareness.
This mobilization will focus on nighttime seat belt enforcement and unbelted crash roadways.
It is projected that BUPA will fund 390 Grantees representing 416 LEAs. We expect an additional 191 Thanksgiving grantees to provide their required in-kind enforcement during this 3 week Mobilization. Strategies will include Traffic Enforcement Zones, Traffic Safety Checkpoints and Roving Patrols to target nighttime drivers, identified unbelted crash roadways , and high-visibility locations utilizing implementing an Enforcement Only/”0” Tolerance approach. The BUPA enforcement plan is intended to optimize the use of grant funds, raise the seat belt usage rate and increase enforcement of safety belt violations.
BUPA will be increasing high-visibility seat belt enforcement efforts around the clock to save more lives on our roadways. Motorists will be urged to fasten their seat belts, day and night … Click It or Ticket.
