First responders have almost been overwhelmed with the work needed on highways during the recent winter ice and snow storm. They are reminding motorists to slow down and watch for first responders.
On Tuesday evening, a Missouri State Highway Patrol officers patrol vehicle was struck while the Trooper was helping a stranded motorist on Interstate 270. Fortunately nobody was injured.
"Please watch for emergency vehicles, tow trucks and department of transportation workers and move over when their emergency lights are activated."
