EMPHASIS: Troop I To Conduct Boat Inspections At Onondaga State Park

Captain James W. Remillard, commanding officer of Troop I, announces that troopers will be conducting a boat inspection station on Saturday, May 21, 2016 at the Onondaga State Park boat ramp in Crawford County. The inspection station will run from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and is free of charge. This inspection station will coincide with National Safe Boating Week which will run from May 21 through May 27, 2016.

Approximately 63 percent of Missouri fatal crash victims who are required to be restrained are NOT at the time of the traffic crash. The Patrol encourages motorists to protect themselves and their passengers by making sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Join us in supporting the Drive To Zero Highway Deaths. Watercraft operators should ensure that everyone in the vessel is wearing an approved life jacket. Click It 4 Life And Wear It!!
