Today, the Buckle up New York campaign will be in full effect. State and county police will be partnering with law enforcement agencies across the country to crack down on drivers who aren't buckling themselves up as well as those who aren't properly restraining young children and other passengers.

Suffolk County police have reported they well be setting up various checkpoints to check for seat-belts through June 2nd.

According to Newsday.com, state law requires all front-seat occupants age 8 or older to be buckled in. The same goes for backseat riders, ages 8 through 15. Any child who is under the age of 4 is to be properly restrained in a safety seat. Any child between the ages of 4 and 7 should be restrained in an appropriate child-restraint system, which does not include a regular seat belt.
