(Richmond)- State Police say all available troopers and supervisors will be on patrol through Memorial Day weekend in hopes of keeping “traffic moving safely and responsibly.” State police will join other law enforcement agencies around the country for the Operation Crash Awareness Reduction Effort (C.A.R.E), which aims to reduce crashes, injuries and fatalities on the road brought on by impaired driving, speeding and people not wearing their seat belts. The effort begins ahead of an expected rainy forecast and surge in travelers for Memorial Day weekend that Virginia State Police said drivers should be prepared for.
