'Click It or Ticket' campaign asking for #SafetySelfie photos

   The Governor's Highway Safety Program has launched its Memorial Day "Click It or Ticket" campaign and asking people to share pictures on social media of themselves buckled up, using the hashtag #SafetySelfie.
  
   With your vehicle in a parked position, activate your cell phone camera and take a picture showing your seat belt buckled securely. Then, share the photo with your friends, family and co-workers via Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest with the hashtag, "#SafetySelfie." The GHSP also encourages you to add comments urging others to follow your example and fasten their seat belts before putting the vehicle in drive. 
  
   "This is about saving lives and spreading the word that seat belts should be second nature every time you step into a car," said Cris Mulder, deputy secretary for communication at the N.C. Department of Transportation. "That's a safety message that starts early and can't be repeated enough. The #SafetySelfie is a fun and engaging way to get everyone involved in driving the message home through social media, a method we know will make an impact."
  
   This is the 20th year of the "Click It or Ticket" campaign in North Carolina. The Memorial Day campaign will end June 2.
