Georgia Drivers Warned as Seatbelt and Speeding Crackdowns Begin
Tuesday, May 19th, 2026
Georgia is launching two major traffic safety enforcement campaigns beginning Monday, including the annual “Click It or Ticket” seatbelt crackdown.
That campaign runs through May 31, including Memorial Day weekend. Georgia law requires drivers and front-seat passengers in all vehicles to wear seat belts. Children between the ages of 8 and 17 are also required to wear seat belts in the backseat.
The Georgia Governor’s Office of Highway Safety says nearly half of the people killed in crashes across Georgia were not wearing seat belts.
