Louisiana seatbelt usage rate stands at 88.4%, its highest level ever.
Officials say a remix of a hit song from a Lafayette musician helped drive up the numbers.
At the request of the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission, Cupid remixed his song "Cupid Shuffle" with new words to create a 2018 public service announcement called "Now Click."
The new lyrics emphasized the importance of wearing seatbelts.
The state agency worked with Cupid to create a Valentine's Day video celebrating the record-high seatbelt usage rate.
