State Troopers to Increase Patrols for Seat Belt Use
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)

In the coming weeks, law enforcement agencies in Texas will increase patrols to identify drivers and passengers not wearing seat belts. This initiative is part of the 'Click It or Ticket' campaign, running from May 18 to 31, aimed at promoting driver safety. Authorities emphasize that wearing a seat belt can be the difference between life and death in an accident. According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), 965 people died in Texas traffic accidents in 2025 due to not wearing seat belts. The campaign also reminds that children under 8 must use a special seat or booster unless they are over 4 feet 9 inches tall.
