    Officer Camden spotted a couple of our Troopers during lunch today at Pizza Ranch in Tea. The Troopers asked for a photo with Camden, it made their day. The 3 of them want to remind all of you to be safe this Halloween. They’ll be on patrol. #keepSDsafe

    As we bring today to a close, let us not forget about the 39 law enforcement officers, this year, who have given the ultimate sacrifice to keep us all safe. In #memory of each of them, this Trooper did 1 pushup for each officer killed in the line of duty. #neverforget #lineofduty

    At about this time 32 years, 6 months, and 3 days ago, I prepared my boots 🥾 for my first day on Highway Patrol. This morning I prepare them for retirement. Not my boots, but me. For today I retire. #lastday #retirement

    This trooper stopped to make sure this motorist on the side of I-90 was okay. Turns out his tire was flat, so trooper Dale broke out his gloves and got to work. Within a few minutes he had the tire changed and the gentleman back on the road. Just one more way our troopers help…

    Make sure to get your license plate validation stickers from your local courthouse. Writing the current year on a previous years sticker with sharpie doesn't work. #keepSDsafe #ExpiredPlates

    We generally do not post pictures of our seizures, but thought we would make an exception this time! Troopers found this load on a routine traffic stop. If you're rolling dirty, we will find you! #CleanUpTheStreets #COVID19

    A big shoutout to the #DesignatedDriver and those that chose to #dontdrinkanddrive. There were #Zero DUI arrests at the Artesian street dance last night and every stop had a car load of people and a #sober driver. #keepSDsafe
