Please join me in wishing the Mississippi Department of Public Safety and the Mississippi Highway Patrol a very happy birthday! 🎉

Established under Senate Bill 161 in 1938, these agencies have spent nearly nine decades serving and protecting the people of Mississippi with dedication, integrity, and honor. From the first patrol cars to the men and women who wear the uniform today, the mission remains the same to keep our roads safe and our communities strong.

Here’s to 88 years of service and many more to come! 🚔

Planning to travel tonight?

It may not be snowy in south Mississippi but a rainy day combined with overnight temperatures in the 20’s could make for icy and treacherous travel. Troopers are actively monitoring highways to ensure safety.
