Douglas Co. Sheriff’s Office in Click it or Ticket Campaign, May 16

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office is partnering with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as well as other State Law Enforcement agencies across the state, from May 16 through May 29, 2016 for the national “click it or ticket” campaign. This enforcement period comes ahead of the Memorial Day holiday, one of the busiest travel weekends of the year. Deputies will be working special overtime, federally funded, and administered by the Oregon Department of Transportation. Deputies will be focusing on enforcing various traffic violations that will include, but are not limited to: seatbelt use in motor vehicles, violating the “hands-free” cellphone law, minors in open pick up beds, and exceeding the posted speed limit.
