🍂Happy First Day of Fall! 🍂
It is that time of year again, harvest is either in full swing or just starting!

1. be extra cautious at rural intersections
2. pass farm equipment ONLY when you are in a passing zone and the road is clear

Be alert, slow down, share the road 🚜

#NationalInsuranceAwarenessDay!

Take a few minutes to review your vehicle's insurance to make sure it is up-to-date with correct information and/or not expired. An insurance card should be in every vehicle, that operates on the roadway, at all times. 🚗✔

Our thoughts are with Trooper Jerry Smith's family, friends, @NSP_TroopE , @NEStatePatrol and fellow Law Enforcement across the state as they lay to rest a brother in blue.

Thank you for your dedication and service to our country and the State of Nebraska #373. Rest easy.

[Nebraska State Patrol @NEStatePatrol]

Trooper Smith was a proud Trooper and a dedicated public servant, having come to NSP in 2014 following a decorated 25-year career in the United States Army.

All of NSP stands with Trooper Smith's family and loved ones. We are hurting, but together we are one.
