Even Snow Movers are required to have load securement between jobs if traveling on a public roadway. Gravity is not load securement. MCS5

Motor Carrier Troopers are again enforcing CMV passing and speeding laws in Glenwood Canyon. The driver of this CMV was stopped for passing when prohibited and placed out of service for no record of duty status.

Move Over, or Slow Down, it’s the law. When a service or emergency vehicles has emergency lights activated, move to the next available lane if possible, or slow down. Only a thin line separates your vehicle from them. That could be the difference between life and death.

Move over and slow down for emergency vehicles!

One of our WHP Troopers nearly got hit by a commercial semi-tractor and trailer recently. The near miss occurred near Rawlins, Wyoming, on Interstate 80.

Please slow down, and move over for emergency vehicles.

[WYDOT District 1 @wydot1]

Per our @WYHighwayPatrol:
Recovery is underway for a semi that crashed over a bridge in Elk Mtn. at MM 262 I80 WB. Due to the extreme weather & poor road conditions, I80 will be closed while our crews & emergency responders rescue stranded motorists & those that have crashed.

From the NWS - it appears NECO will have gusting winds in the mid 40 mph range. High profile vehicles such as empty semi trailers, RV’s, camper trailers, moving trucks etc may need to park until the wind event is over. Drivers are required to maintain control of their vehicle!

Motor Carrier Troopers are again working in Glenwood Canyon, enforcing lane and speed restrictions for commercial motor vehicles.

CSP is losing Troopers through resignations and retirements. Fewer Troopers equals more dangerous driving behaviors; statistics prove it. In 2022, Colorado had 745 traffic fatalities. The most since 1981. Unfortunately, it doesn’t end there. #ISupportCSP https://t.co/G81GYT4AF3
