EMPHASIS: Changes Announced For The Park Central Driver Examination Station In Springfield

Captain Juan Villanueva, commanding officer of Troop D, Springfield, announces that due to the upcoming Birthplace of Route 66 Festival, the Park Central Driver Examination Station in Springfield will only be open for written tests and no on-road skills or motorcycle tests will be administered on Friday, August 12, 2016. The public is encouraged to use the driver examination stations in Buffalo, Mt. Vernon, Nixa, or Republic. For hours of operation and examination station locations, visit our website at www.mshp.dps.mo.gov.

The Park Central Driver Examination Station will resume normal testing from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, August 15, 2016.

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.”
