County Seatbelt Usage Rate
August

The
Lima Allen County Safe Community Coalition, along with their law
enforcement partner, the Allen County Sheriff’s Office,
will be distributing positive citations to area drivers who are
buckled up. McDonald’s coupons will be given to buckled-up
drivers traveling through the intersections of St. Mary’s
Road & SR81; Lincoln Highway & SR65; SR196 & SR117.
The intersections were chosen because seat belt use rates are
historically low at those sites. Hopefully, area motorists will
be encouraged to buckle up – every trip, no matter how short
or long the trip.
