May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. Because of its size, a motorcycle can be hard to see in traffic. Stay alert when you’re behind the wheel and remember, never ride while impaired or distracted-it’s not worth the risk!!!
Take a look at this program that is right here in Iowa! Its a FREE, student led, interactive program for high school students to get their school involved in being proactive in the importance of seatbelt usage and promoting NOT driving distracted! Contact me for more information.
Where has common sense gone? We continue to see these violations across our state! There are plenty of flashing lights on these big yellow buses to see! Please pay attention, don't drive distracted and if you aren't sure- JUST STOP! A child's life might depend on it!
Road conditions are extremely hazardous in northern portions - travel in some areas is impossible. The Iowa DOT and the Patrol closed north- and south-bound I-35 at Exit 111 (U.S. 30) in Ames to Exit 194 (U.S. 18) at Clear Lake until possibly Saturday a.m. https://t.co/p9YElStsOi

Tis the season - Sergeant Dinkla spotted the Grinch not wearing his seatbelt. Off to Colonel Fulk’s office for a little talk and an arm wrestling contest!
HEADS UP TRAVELERS: if you are heading towards South East Iowa Trooper Marlow just let the cat out of the bag where most of the Troopers will be so keep your 👁️ out. Wear your seatbelt etc, etc, etc.
Troopers will be busy this Friday December 16th in Keokuk County for High Five Rural Traffic Safety efforts. Emphasis on Seatbelts, Impaired Drivers, Distracted Drivers & Speeding. Drive Safe. @iowastatepatrol
Watch out Travelers it looks like Sgt Dinkla is putting Trooper Elf back on duty for the Holiday Season. Remover Trooper Elf has laser like abilities and can spot violators from great distances, angles and heights!!! Keep your 👀 open for Trooper Elf!!
Iowa State Patrol Troopers in District #10 Oelwein, Iowa, did a great job of promoting public safety on our Iowa roadways over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend!!
