Seatbelt Enforcement Blitz Continues

Ontario Provincial Police say a number of area motorists are getting caught driving without their seatbelts.

Police are in the midst of their spring seatbelt enforcement blitz, and Constable Anne McCoy says officers are still finding some motorists and their passengers failing to take the extra second to buckle-up.

"We will get those people who forget to buckle-up," says McCoy, "or are distracted and are not buckling up. It's so important. It is a fine of $240 and two demerit points. It is a dangerous thing (not to use a seatbelt)."

The enforcement blitz continues through to Saturday.
