(KNZA)--Beginning Saturday, November 19 through Monday, Nov 27, the Hiawatha Police Department will join many other law enforcement agencies across the state, including the Kansas Highway Patrol, in the Kansas "THANKGIVING SAFE ARRIVAL" traffic enforcement campaign.
Although all Kansas Traffic Laws will be enforced, the Police Department said in a release that the campaign will be focusing on actively enforcing the state's occupant protection laws.
The police department will also provide education that serves as a reminder that BUCKLING UP SAVES LIVES.
" Buckle Up--your friends and family are counting on you to arrive safely this Thanksgiving. Click it. Don’t risk it."
The campaign is supported by a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation.
