Start Trip Early Drive Safely Say Missouri Patrol
Thousands in Missouri prepare for the Fourth as the Highway Patrol urges early travel, prudent speeds, and traffic-law courtesy. Col. Hugh H. Waggoner calls for steady speeds, staying right, avoiding unnecessary lane changes, and using signals. He stresses abstaining from alcohol or drugs before driving and urges careful checks before travel to handle holiday traffic. Records show 18 traffic deaths by July 4 in a tragic start to the month.
