EMPHASIS:
MCSAP SAFETE Project To Be Conducted In Troop F
Captain Michael A. Turner, commanding officer of Troop F, announces Troop F will participate in the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program SAFETE. This enforcement program is designed to target violations that lead to commercial motor vehicle crashes, such as excessive speed, following too close, unsafe lane changes, careless driving, impaired driving, and distracted driving (texting and handheld cell phone use). This operation will be conducted in Boone and Callaway counties sometime during the week of October 24.
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.”
