Thousands Cited During "Click It Or Ticket" Campaign

{Frankfort, Kentucky}...Kentucky State Police say 19,594 people received citations because they didn't buckle up during this year's "Click It Or Ticket" campaign. Officers set up 642 safety checkpoints during the campaign and arrested 1,003 suspected drunk drivers. The annual effort was supported by more than 220 state and local law enforcement agencies. It was held from late May to early June. State Transportation Secretary Mike Hancock says the campaign's goal is not to write tickets but to save lives.
