During the first two days of 2021, I have been involved in two pursuits and the processing of two impaired drivers.

Let’s pump the brakes, Billings.

I don’t want to spoil the ending for anyone, but there might be some info about wearing your seatbelt. #BuckleUp #SlowYourRoll

@Lotus_of_Honor Here I am thinking I was clarifying a misunderstanding.

2/2 The “Move Over” law exists to prevent these incidents. The driver of the semi did not slow down or move over soon enough. Fortunately, Sgt Beehler was able to make it home to his family. Please slow down. Please move over. Our lives literally depend on it.

1/2 Today, Sgt Beehler’s patrol car was struck by a passing semi. He was in the car, parked on the shoulder, and had emergency lights activated while he investigated a separate crash. He was transported to the hospital but has already been released. He suffered minor injuries.

Last week, I stopped a 77-year-old who had never been pulled over before. Immediately after that, I stopped a 26-year-old who had been pulled over no less than 10 times.

I feel like there is a lesson to be learned here.

Snow is falling again in the Billings area. Visibility and temperature are both going down. Slow down and increase your following distance.

DOT is working on the road near the Garryowen exit of I-90.

The work zone is about a mile long, which is not much of an inconvenience. Please slow down and watch for workers.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

We better see Sgt. Smith in a Mario costume or this will be a very disappointing day.

K9 Szemes aka “Luigi” is kicking off the first of several “K9s in Costume” we’ll share today to have a little fun for #Halloween.

As a friendly reminder, if your Halloween plans involve booo-ze, please make a plan to get home safely.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

Responded to a head-on crash near mile marker 508 of I-90.

No life-threatening injuries sustained.

When approaching emergency vehicles, slow down. Your time is not more importanr than a person’s life.

My wife and I welcomed a baby into the world this week. I’ll be away from work and social media for a bit. Please make things easier on my coworkers while I’m gone by driving sober and wearing your seatbelt. #BabyDaddy

Not a bad view from the mobile office tonight.

If you are interested in acquiring your own mobile office, apply today. The deadline is October 1.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

@ZackAttack1110 Keep the title and/or bill of sale with you as proof that the vehicle recently changed hands.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

Quick PSA. When you sell a vehicle, it is your responsibility to remove the license plates. (MCA 61-3-334). Spread the word.

It’s very frustrating to investigate crashes, pursuits, abandoned vehicles, etc., when the vehicle was sold and still has old plates on it.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

Earlier this week, I was doing some lawn work and noticed a passerby that saw my patrol car, slowed down, and quickly put on their seatbelt.

Two things -
1) My patrol car is working even when I’m not.
2) Buckle up when you get in, not just when you see law enforcement.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

TRAFFIC ALERT - Highway 87 between Billings and Roundup is closed due to the fire in the area. Please find an alternate route.

[Trooper Calvin Jimmerson @TrooperCalvin]

I’m assisting @mtdot with a moving construction zone (and wish they had this sign). If you’re traveling between Columbus and Billings, slow down for the road crews.
