Fall Seatbelt Campaign

The fall seatbelt campaign conducted by the Guelph Police ran from September 30 to October 13, 2013. Over the fourteen days, 91 seatbelt tickets were issued to vehicle occupants.

Fact…

Wearing your seat belt properly will dramatically increase your chance of surviving a motor vehicle collision.

For every one per cent increase in seat belt usage, five lives in Canada are saved (Transport Canada).

Since seat belts were made mandatory, the number of people killed and injured in collisions in Ontario has steadily dropped.
