Dufferin OPP has concluded its Easter long weekend seatbelt campaign

The campaign ran from April 3 to April 6, with officers conducting proactive traffic enforcement and maintaining a strong presence on local roadways to promote safety. While the primary focus was on seatbelt compliance, enforcement efforts extended to a variety of traffic-related offences.

Distracted Driving – 3

Seatbelt – 26

Speeding – 116

Stunt Driving – 5

Impaired Driving – 5

Other miscellaneous offences – 105

The results of the campaign indicate that some drivers and passengers continue to neglect wearing seatbelts. Buckling up takes only a few seconds and significantly increases the likelihood of surviving a collision.
