WisDOT challenges Wisconsin to put safety first by taking the two most important actions to prevent or survive a crash. Accept the Buckle Up Phone Down challenge.

  1. Use your seat belt every trip and put down the phone when driving.

  2. Take the Buckle Up Phone Down pledge.

  3. Share your commitment by taking a “thumbs up/thumbs down” photo. Post it to social media using the hashtag #BuckleUpPhoneDown.

    In my country not doing both of those in a moving vehicle gets you fined and/or your license suspended.

    Welcome to the 20th century I suppose, America. You’ll make it to actual modern times eventually!

      The US absolutely has seatbelt laws, and only two states don’t have cellphone use laws.

      Problem is that that they’re rarely enforced.

        I think the problem is the lack of a way to prove someone was on their phone. It’s such a hassle that cops stopped pulling people over for it because it led nowhere.
