OHIO — The Ohio State Highway Patrol had troopers out in full force last weekend to enforce the law.
The effort was through the 6-State Trooper Project, combining efforts of highway patrols from several states to support roadway safety.
From Friday, Oct. 4 through Sunday, Oct. 6, OSHP was joined by the Indiana State Police and Pennsylvania State Police on the campaign.
Ohio troopers issued citations for 325 speeding violations, 22 safety belt violations and made four OVI arrests. Through all three states there were a total of 682 citations for speeding, 47 citations for safety belt violations and 19 OVI arrests.
I-70 runs through many U.S. cities, such as Columbus, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Indianapolis and more.
Outside the campaign, other members of the 6-State Trooper Project include the Kentucky State Police, Michigan State Police and West Virginia State Police.
