Buckle up! The annual statewide Click It or Ticket campaign begins Sunday, May 19.
Merriam police officers will write you a ticket if they see you or any passenger in your vehicle not wearing a seatbelt. The two-week campaign ends Sunday, June 2.
Sponsored by the Kansas Department of Transportation, the goal is to reduce the number of preventable deaths and injuries involved in traffic crashes. KDOT said your risk of a fatal injury during a crash is cut in half if you’re properly buckled.
