The Georgia Department of Public Safety oversees the day-to-day operations of the Georgia State Patrol (GSP), Capitol Police and the Motor Carrier Compliance Division (MCCD). GSP troopers investigate traffic crashes and enforce traffic and criminal laws on the state’s roads. Capitol Police officers prevent and detect criminal acts, and enforce traffic regulations throughout Capitol Hill. MCCD officers conduct safety inspections of commercial motor vehicles and inspect highway Hazmat shipments.
Warmer weather means an increase in the number of motor vehicles traveling on Georgia’s roads, especially motorcycles. The Georgia State Patrol reminds drivers and motorcycle operators to be alert for one another and courteous to help prevent motorcycle crashes on the state’s roadways.
State troopers are reminding drivers who will travel on spring break trips this year to make safety a priority.
