Minnesota law enforcement cites 1,100 unbelted motorists in one week

Minnesota law requires drivers and all seated passengers to wear seat belts, but law enforcement found more than 1,100 motorists breaking that rule during a recent Click It or Ticket campaign.

Police statewide handed out a total of 1,164 tickets during the Sept. 18-24 education and enforcement campaign to encourage drivers to buckle up, the Department of Public Safety (DPS) said.

Another 27 motorists were cited for not having children properly restrained in a car seat, including a parent in Lonsdale who was driving with a toddler on their lap.
