APD Joins 2022 TxDOT Click it or Ticket Initiative
The Austin Police Department will join the Texas Department of Transportation for the annual Click It or Ticket Initiative. Officers will focus on people not wearing a seatbelt and unrestrained minors. This initiative will run from May 23rd thru June 5th.
Texans can play a significant role in ending fatal crashes with a few simple driving habits:
- Wear seatbelts.
- Drive the speed limit.
- Put away the phone and other distractions.
- Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
APD and TxDOT focus on preventing deaths on Austin's streets, highways, and waterways. Both departments are dedicated to making the roadways and waterways of Austin safe for residents and visitors through education and enforcement.
