From the Executive Office of Public Safety:
The Massachusetts State Police and over 230 local police departments are participating in the Spring 2007 Click It or Ticket Mobilization that runs May 14th to June 3th. This statewide effort combines extra traffic enforcement, public information, and community outreach to reduce motor vehicle crashes, with special emphasis on the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. There were four motor vehicle-related fatalities over the holiday weekend in Massachusetts in 2006.
This Click It or Ticket Mobilization is coordinated by the Executive Office of Public Safety's Highway Safety Division. Click It or Ticket has helped to increase safety belt use by 16% in Massachusetts between 2002 and 2006 to a record high of 67%. However, Massachusetts still lags behind the national rate of 81%.
