Local law enforcement reminds all drivers in the area to "Click It or Ticket" as they start a new campaign this month.
Washoe and Storey Counties will join with other participating law enforcement agencies in Nevada for a Joining Forces Click It or Ticket Campaign, according to a release from the Washoe County Sheriff's Office (WCSO).
The campaign will run from May 5 to May 26.
Officials say that the statewide effort will focus on seat belt use, and educating drivers on seat belt safety.
The Storey County Sheriff's Office shares that a vast majority of drivers buckle their seatbelts behind them to avoid the chimes that most cars have when a seatbelt is not being worn - but doing this increases the risk of death or serious injury from a crash.
