Local police will be watching for proper seatbelt use over the coming long weekend.
Superior East Ontario Provincial Police Constable Ashley Nickle explains the local detachment is conducting targeted enforcement - checking to ensure all occupants of vehicles are wearing seatbelts, to enhance traffic safety and reduce the number of injuries or deaths on roads - as she notes a lack of proper seatbelt use is an ongoing issue across the province, one of the "Big Four" problems targeted throughout the year.
The Easter Long Weekend Seatbelt Campaign runs from Good Friday through Easter Monday.
