EMPHASIS: Troop E Officers To Conduct MCSAP Safety Operation

Captain George E. Ridens, commanding officer, Troop E, Poplar Bluff, announced that sometime during the month of October, a Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Project (MCSAP) will be held in Troop E. During the operation, troopers and officers 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.

In support of “The Drive To Zero Highway Deaths,” 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. Watercraft operators should ensure that everyone in the vessel is wearing an approved life jacket. Click It 4 Life And Wear It!!
