Lincoln & Hastings Kearney, NE, November 4, 2026 — The Lincoln Police Department (LPD) has initiated a focused effort to increase seatbelt compliance across the city. The Seatbelt Enforcement Project began on November 5th and is scheduled to continue through November 30th. This initiative is part of the broader ‘Make It Click’ campaign, aimed at promoting safer driving habits among Lincoln residents and visitors.

During this period, LPD officers will be conducting increased enforcement activities. The department has stated a particular focus will be placed on specific times when seatbelt usage may be lower or when traffic volume is higher. These times include evenings, weekends, and the period surrounding the Thanksgiving holiday. The objective is to remind drivers and passengers of the critical importance of wearing seatbelts.

The ‘Make It Click’ campaign seeks to encourage voluntary seatbelt usage by raising awareness and demonstrating a commitment to enforcement. The LPD’s efforts are intended to enhance overall road safety within Lincoln by reducing the risks associated with unbuckled occupants in the event of a collision. The project highlights the ongoing need for seatbelt use, which remains one of the most effective safety measures available in vehicles.

Specific details regarding the number of officers involved or the precise geographic areas targeted beyond the general focus on evenings, weekends, and the holiday were not provided. The project is a proactive measure by the LPD to reinforce traffic safety regulations and promote a culture of safety on Lincoln’s roadways throughout the remainder of November.
