Fall Seat Belt Campaign
The Sault Ste. Marie Police Service would like to remind motorists that wearing your seatbelt is the law and that if you are stopped by the City Police be prepared to pay the consequences of not wearing your seatbelt. Between October 3rd and October 13th members of the Sault Ste. Marie Police Service will be participating in the 2006 Fall Seatbelt Campaign. Don’t be surprised if you see the City Police and the Ontario Provincial Police working together on this campaign.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Ontario’s mandatory seatbelt law. In 1976, Ontario was the first Province to make the wearing of seatbelts mandatory. Spring and fall seatbelt campaigns have been an integral part of an education and enforcement initiative since 1993. Ontario residents enjoy the safest road network in Canada, yet there are 680,000 people who fail to wear their seatbelts.
This fall campaign will focus attention on proper seatbelt and child car seat use. Last year the Ontario government made booster seats mandatory for children under 8 years of age who weigh between 40 –80 pounds, and are less that 4’9” tall. Drivers who fail to use booster seats or child car seats for young passengers, or who use them incorrectly, face two demit points plus a $110 fine.
The 2004 Ontario Road Safety Annual Report reports that approximately one-third of fatally injured drivers and passengers were not wearing seatbelts. Unbelted passengers involved in fatal or personal injury collisions are nearly 14.3 times more likely to be killed and almost 4.8 times more likely to be hospitalized then belted passengers.
Surveys have revealed that seatbelt usage is as high as 92% in urban communities and for every 1% increase in seatbelt usage in Ontario, five lives are saved.
Chief Davies advising that “We know seatbelts save lives. One of the simplest ways you could save your life or your child or grandchild’s life is to buckle up!”
