EMPHASIS: Troop I Announces September Special Enforcement Projects


Captain Lee Ann H. Kenley, commanding officer of Troop I, announces that special enforcement projects will be conducted during September within the six-county Troop I area. DWI saturations will be conducted in Crawford and Dent counties, and a DWI sobriety checkpoint will be held in Pulaski County. A hazardous moving enforcement operation will be conducted in Pulaski and Phelps counties, and a MCSAP-SAFETE operation, which emphasizes the enforcement of commercial motor vehicle laws, will take place in Phelps County.
Captain Kenley stated, "Thus far in 2009, Troop I has had substantially fewer traffic fatalities than this date last year. Remember, along with always wearing a seat belt, we can continue to reduce these numbers by always being attentive, obeying the speed limit, and never driving while impaired."
