Ontario Provincial Police News Portal [STORMONT DUNDAS and GLENGARRY] OPP Wrap-up Fall Seat Belt Campaign 2013-10-16
(ORILLIA, ON) – The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has wrapped up its Fall seat belt campaign and has tallied up its statistics for the annual campaign which ran from September 26 to October 13, 2013.
Sadly, lack of seat belt use was a factor in three people losing their lives in road crashes in OPP jurisdictions during this year’s campaign. According to the OPP, fatalities and injuries in which lack of seat belt use is a factor are among the most preventable of deaths on highways and roads.
The OPP also reported laying 4,229 seat belt charges throughout the province during the 18-day campaign. Officers who carried out seat belt checks and public education in support of the campaign were disappointed to see so many people still not wearing seat belts in light of how clear they have been about the role seat belts play in saving lives.
As part of their campaign, the OPP posted an important YouTube video about Jennifer Walker who, two days after receiving an OPP warning for not wearing her seat belt, was involved in a car crash that would have probably ended her life had she not heeded the officer’s warning and decided to make buckling up part of her driving routine. According to Jennifer, she was extremely thankful that the officer pulled her over that day and gave her a warning that she attributes to saving her life.

The OPP is reminding the public that while the campaign is on
Manor Park is kind of a well to do area of Ottawa near Rockliffe Park and those rich people do go insane as well as anybody else. That broke my heart. This morning while driving by on Riverside Drive across from the Riverside Hospital I saw a small dog (butterscotch colored hair) dead on the road – run over by a vehicle and I felt very bad. People are nuts anymore and many are not fit to raise children let alone pets.
I’m glad I wasn’t there to witness the brutality. I’d be locked up and facing serious charges.
Let’s hope this guy finally gets the help he needs.
Furtz you and I both would be in jail in the same place because if there is something that I will tear people apart in pieces is brutality to animals and brutality to children.
