(From Highway Patrol Troop D)
A total of 98 citations, two arrests, and 100 warnings were issued in conjunction with hazardous moving enforcement operations conducted in Greene County on June 23, 2017, and in Jasper County on June 24, 2017. Totals from these enforcement efforts include:
46 -- speed citations
20 -- seat belt citations
11 -- non-moving violations
7 -- uninsured motorist citations
5 -- driver license citations
4 -- following too closely violations
3 -- child restraint citations
2 -- other hazardous moving arrests
1 -- misdemeanor warrant arrest
1 -- driving while intoxicated
“Our mission is to make our highways safer, which cannot be solely accomplished by traffic arrests,” stated Captain Villanueva. “In order to meet this goal, it is vital that every motorist take it upon themselves to be a safe, courteous, and conscientious driver.”
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.”
