| 15 weeks 3 days 2 hours ago 'Click it or Ticket' enforced in Massachusetts
|
(NECN: Prat Thakkar, Boston, Mass.) - With the start of the summer driving season just a few days away, there's a renewed campaign urging drivers and passengers to buckle up. Several organizations are gathering at Tufts Medical Center in Boston to highlight the consequences of not wearing a safety belt.
The Massachusetts State Police, local police, the Brain Injury Association and physicians are hoping to raise awareness about the dangers of driving or riding without a safety belt.
Danielle Wohl of the Brain Injury Association is at the event to share her story of living with a brain injury and how it could have been prevented by wearing a seatbelt.
The event is part of the Commonwealth's Spring 2008 "Click it or Ticket" mobilization, a statewide effort involving extra traffic enforcement and public information that began May 14 and runs through June 4.
