DWI Saturation Patrols Planned in Wentzville.

This week the Wentzville Police Department will conduct coordinated DWI saturation patrols.

The effort will involve extra grant funded officers on patrol and Drug Recognition Experts (DREs)—officers specially trained and certified to identify drivers impaired by drugs, not just alcohol.

How you can help:
Talk to your friends and loved ones about making safe choices. Always plan ahead for a sober ride. Use a rideshare service, designate a driver, or stay overnight if needed. Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you see someone who may be impaired, speak up or help them find a safe option. 

Your actions could save a life, maybe even your own. Let’s all do our part to prevent impaired driving and make our communities safer.

As school starts, please slow down and stay alert in school zones.

Watch for children walking to school, crossing streets and entering crosswalks.

Obey posted speed limits, eliminate distractions and give yourself extra time to get where you’re going.

Slow down, stay alert and help us keep our students safe.

Tell em queen

Apparently, our neighborhood kids’ safety is a traffic-flow issue. 🙃 Our neighborhood speed limit is 25 MPH, yet people absolutely FLY around the corner where there is no stop sign. My son has to cross a 4-way intersection where only two directions have stop signs. I have repeatedly asked for this intersection to be reassessed for a stop sign and have been told there is “no reason” to add one because of traffic flow. Meanwhile, I have multiple videos saved from our security cameras showing just how well that plan is working. Last year alone, my son was nearly hit TWICE while crossing. One driver was on their phone and completely unaware of what was happening. The other was a FedEx driver who came through without stopping or paying attention. My son actually had to RUN to avoid being hit. Had he not started running, I’m not sure what would have happened. But yes… traffic flow. Because apparently that is more important than a child being able to safely cross the street. I truly hope it doesn’t take an actual tragedy before someone decides this intersection deserves another look. Our kids shouldn’t have to play Frogger just to get across the street. 🙄

Why not put flock cameras where they are needed at stop lights and school zones! 🤷

Loved spending time face painting with these ladies the other day! Love our WPD

Please pay attention ALL drivers.

I think it may be necessary to have an officer on N Point Prarie at dismissal time for the high school and middle school. Traffic is an absolute cluster and it’s completely blind pulling out. The school now directs all pickup traffic onto north point instead of West Meyer.

Stay alert everywhere. PUT YOUR CELL PHONES DOWN !!!!!!!!!

Can we please stop both side street parking in neighborhoods!

Be sure to cut the trees down covering the songs to specificly on Mexico RD. I can't even see it anymore but I know it's there though but others may not.

I kinda feel like theres a few ass kids that people won't get upset over if they got hit. It'd be a good lesson for other kids to learn from. "Jayden would be walking if he wasn't a lil fuckin jerk" 💁‍♂️

I see illegal constitution violating flock cameras ....now do something

You still telling people to snitch on children having fun on their e-bikes? Y'all that bored? No real crime to be stopped?

Go take down all those dumb ass flock cameras. Wentzville Missouri Police Department

***UPDATE***
One lane in each direction is now open but flowing slowly. Thank you for your patience as we work through this scene.

Interstate 70 Eastbound is closed just East of Wentzville Parkway for an extended period of time while officers investigate a two vehicle accident involving two semi trucks.

All Eastbound traffic is recommended to divert off the Interstate at David Hoekel Parkway due to the congestion at Wentzville Parkway. 

Traffic is able to access Westbound Interstate 70 from Wentzville Parkway and is flowing.

Westbound Interstate 70 is reduced to one lane but flowing at this time.

Please seek an alternative route if you can to provide first responders room to work this investigation.

Thank you.

Hope the drivers are okay!

It's 3 car. Semi, box truck, kia

Which is causing traffic on interstate

The way EVERYONE drives through the construction zone, I’m surprised there’s not more accidents. Hope everyone is ok!!

Hope all that are involved are ok.

The new traffic pattern at the Wentzville parkway entrance to eastbound hwy 70 is very dangerous. The merge ramp is too short. Folks on the hwy at that spot are doing 70 mph and don't yield to vehicles trying to merge onto the highway.

How about clear the shit off the highway and then do your investigation

someone cavght the whole thing',"this one". Urban Incident Archive
