Watch out for the OPP over the next week.
Officers are out looking for drivers and passengers not wearing their seat belts.
The annual campaign runs until October 6 to ensure that people in vehicles are buckled up.
Not wearing a seat belt will result in a $240 fine and two demerit points.
"Every year, the number of fatalities resulting from not wearing a seat belt when involved in a collision continues to rise," says the OPP. "It is imperative that all drivers and passengers are properly restrained within a vehicle, regardless of how short the trip is."
"Drivers are responsible for ensuring that all passengers under 16-years of age are properly using a seat belt or child safety seat," the OPP says.
