EMPHASIS:
Troop E To Conduct MCSAP Safety Operation
Captain Jeffrey N. Vitale, commanding officer, Troop E, Poplar Bluff, announced that sometime during the month of November, a Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Project (MCSAP) will be held in Mississippi, New Madrid, and Pemiscot counties. During the operation, troopers along with commercial vehicle officers and inspectors from the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division will be concentrating their efforts on locating commercial vehicles being operated in an unsafe manner, as well as drivers committing hazardous moving violations
.
Enforcement efforts will be focused on high crash corridors and in high risk areas, such as rural roads or highway work zones
The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober.
“Don’t Violate The Trust.”
