Motorists Reminded to Buckle Up and Arrive Alive

Dexter, Missouri - Dexter Police Department ticketed 6 motorists during the February 15 Click It or Ticket mobilization. Law enforcement agencies throughout Missouri participated in this statewide effort to get more motorists to buckle up — and save more lives. 

Despite evidence proving the benefits of wearing a seat belt, nearly one in five Missouri motorists are still not making it click. Even more concerning, six out of ten Missourians killed in traffic crashes are unbuckled. 

“Seat belts are your single best defense in a crash,” stated Chief Stone.  “We will continue to encourage drivers to make a simple, smart choice to buckle up and Arrive Alive.”
