A recent effort by Batavia Police to target drivers talking on mobile phones or not wearing seat belts while driving netted 43 citations, according to Sgt. John Peck, who headed up the detail.
The detail was part of a statewide "Buckle Up New York" campaign and funded by a grant issued by the Governor's Traffic Safety Committee.
Officers conducted the detail over March 30 and 31.
The campaign will continue into June with extra details in place May 23 to June 5.

I bet that in about 60 days after all these people pay their fines, we'll see a story about the Batavia Police getting some new equipment. Figure about 150 bucks per ticket, 150 x 43 = $ 6,450. Yay for fascism.
