Heppner police to crack down on seat belt law The Heppner Police Department will join other cities and counties throughout Oregon. Washington and British Columbia in the Thfue Flags Campaign. The campaign seeks to reduce the number of deaths and injuries which occur as a result of motor vehicle crashes by increasing public awareness o f laws regarding safety belt use and other traffic issues including DUII and speed. There will be three blitzes during the year 2000. The first one is scheduled for Feb. 11-Feb. 20. Heppner Police Dept, will be participating with officers working overtime. The funds will be provided by ODOT. Heppner Police started participating in the blitzes in February 1999.

This is a 39 percent increase in the use of the safety belt. This year, with drivers' and passengers' cooperation, Heppner Police would like to see 100 percent buckled up.
