Police: Campaign to Check Seatbelt and Child Seat Usage

The Cyprus Police announced the launch of a nationwide campaign to check seatbelt and child/booster seat usage, with the aim of reducing serious and fatal injuries in road traffic collisions. The campaign will run from March 9th to March 15th and will be conducted in parallel with a similar pan-European campaign by the ROADPOL network. According to available statistics, 50.9% of drivers and passengers killed in road accidents between 2022 and 2024 were not wearing seatbelts, highlighting the importance of their use for the safety of drivers and passengers.
