EMPHASIS: Motorcycle Skills Tests To Be Offered In Palmyra, Missouri


Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, announces effective immediately, motorcycle skills tests will once again be offered at the Palmyra Driver Examination Station, located at the Marion County Courthouse in Palmyra, Missouri. Testing is conducted at that location on each second, fourth, and fifth Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to noon, and 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. Motorcycle skills tests will only be provided when the pavement is dry.
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 urges 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!!
