Nevada Highway Patrol has a seat belt campaign going on now through Dec. 10.

During this time, the officers will be watching for drivers and other occupants in vehicles who are not wearing their seat belts and/or children who are not properly secured in car or booster seats. Deputies will be stopping drivers for traffic offenses and issuing citations for seat belt violations if unbuckled.

According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 12,584 lives were saved by wearing seat belts, yet 49 percent of occupants who were killed in 2013 weren’t restrained.
