EMPHASIS: Troop E Officers To Conduct MCSAP Safety Operation

Captain Jeffrey N. Vitale, commanding officer, Troop E, Poplar Bluff, announced that sometime during the months of May and June, a Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Project (MCSAP) will be held in Cape Girardeau County. 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.

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.”
