Click it, Or Ticket Students

Marion police officers will be checking students who drive to school Friday on the last day of classes as part of the federal Click It, or Ticket driver safety campaign.

Police Chief Ray O'Neal says officers will be conducting a scheduled road check after school Friday at the intersection of Old Morganfield Road and Elm Street near the bus garage on campus.

Officers will be making sure drivers and passengers leaving the school parking lot are buckled up. They will be citing drivers who fail to comply with the mandatory Kentucky seat belt law. The fine is $25.
