The Oswego Police Department issued 15 seat belt citations during the recent Thanksgiving enforcement campaign.
The Oswego Police Department took the following enforcement actions.
• Two speeding citations;
• Seven distracted driving (use of electronic communications) citations.
Law enforcement agencies throughout Illinois participated to save lives by getting impaired drivers off the roads and more people buckled up. The enforcement campaign took place from November 22 through December 2.
During the mobilization, extra emphasis was placed on enforcement during late-night hours, when statistics show the most unbuckled and impaired driving fatalities occur.
This law enforcement effort was made possible by federal highway safety funds administered through the Illinois Department of Transportation and is part of the nationwide “Click It or Ticket” and “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaigns.
