Click-it or Ticket is a grant program sponsored by the Governors
Highway Safety Bureau (GHSB). This program rewards proactive local and
state police agencies with grant money to enable police departments
to deploy specialized patrols to aggressively enforce motor vehicle
laws in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The Ipswich Police Department was awarded a $7,000 grant
from the GHSB. This grant reflects on the proactive activity of the
dedicated members of the Ipswich Police Department. This $7,000 grant
will enable the police department to put on additional patrol cars solely
dedicated to vehicle enforcement. The grant lays out specific guidelines
that we must meet in order to maintain our grant. The Ipswich Police
have met, and exceeded those expectations. The grant also allows for
vehicle maintenance due to the added patrols. This grant program has
proven to be successful in years past, and is in full gear for the 2007
campaign.
The GHSB has outlines specific dates when patrols are
to be deployed and the specific issue to be addressed. While there is
a specific issue to be targeted, all vehicle infractions are enforced
by click-it or ticket patrols.
