Gulfport PD partnering with Surge
The Gulfport Police Department announced today a new partnership with the Mississippi Surge hockey team to promote the importance of buckling up behind the wheel.
Today and tomorrow, the GPD will be on the lookout for motorists who are buckled up.
Those who are not buckled up will receive a traffic ticket. Those who take the time to buckle up will also receive tickets.
However, those tickets will be to see the Surge play in the President’s Cup Finals at the Coast Coliseum on April 14 and 15.
“This is a great way to promote the importance of buckling up,” said Police Chief Alan Weatherford. “Safety behind the wheel can never be stressed enough.”
