Prospect Heights Police Department issued the following announcement on Aug. 27.
Prospect Heights Police Department joins Illinois Click It or Ticket Campaign- To Save Lives Prospect Heights, IL – Prospect Heights Police Department will join the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), the Illinois State Police (ISP) and hundreds of local law enforcement agencies across the state for the 2018 Illinois Click It or Ticket campaign.
Please remember to buckle up this Labor Day holiday and for anyone planning on celebrating the holiday with a drink, the Prospect Heights Police Department has a message for you, "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over."
"We need our community to understand that it's up to everyone to make the smart decision to drive sober on Labor Day and every day," Deputy Chief Jim Zawlocki said. "This isn't about writing tickets or making arrests. This is about saving lives and helping people realize impaired driving can be fatal. It's a matter of life or death."
In addition, seatbelt law violators will receive a ticket - no exceptions. "Click It or Ticket" applies to the back seat, too.
