Captain James E. McDonald, commanding officer Troop H, St. Joseph, announces that Troop H will once again be participating in the Thanksgiving holiday weekend enforcement operations.

These operations’ objective is to reduce the number and severity of traffic crashes.

Throughout the holiday weekend, troopers within Troop H and throughout the state will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. (Combined Accident Reduction Effort).  In addition to Operation C.A.R.E., Troop H will also be participating in the statewide 20-Mile Trooper project during the peak travel periods on Wednesday, November 26, and Sunday, November 30.

During this operation, troopers will be assigned to 20-mile stretches of Interstate 29.

Enforcement efforts on secondary roads will be conducted during the same time frame within Troop H.

Over the entire holiday weekend troopers will be vigorously enforcing all traffic laws and helping motorists in need of assistance.
