NEW BOOSTER SEAT LAW ENACTED
On January 6, 2009, the State of Ohio signed a new child seatbelt law that will take effect on April 6, 2009. An amendment to Ohio Revised Code 4511.093, 4511.81, and 4513.263 requires certain children who are between 4-8 years of age to be secured in a booster seat. It also states that a child who is less than eight years of age and less than four feet nine inches in height has to be secured in a booster seat. Violation of this booster seat provision is a secondary traffic offense. Click here for more information about the new booster seat law. (.pdf format)

Guidelines for Motorists Stopped by the Police
If you are one of the millions of motorists who drive the public roadways each day, chances are that you have been pulled over by a police officer, deputy sheriff, or trooper.  At a minimum, you have probably encountered a situation where you needed to yield the right-of-way to a public safety vehicle (fire truck, rescue squad, police car, ambulance, etc.).  Luckily, for the majority of motorists, these contacts are infrequent.  However, they can be awkward, unnerving, and uncomfortable.  Is there a right way to behave in such situations?  What should you do when you see those dreaded red and blue lights flashing behind you?  Click here for some suggestions from the Wickliffe Police Department on getting through a safe traffic stop or pullover and returning you safely back to your journey.
