Captain Juan Villanueva, commanding officer of Troop D, announces the results of a sobriety checkpoint conducted in Jasper County on August 26, 2016. The location of the checkpoint was on Missouri Highway 43 at Fountain Road. A total of 839 vehicles were stopped, and the following is a list of enforcement contacts made during the operation.

The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every other driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober. “Don’t Violate The Trust.”
