CASPER – Recruit Class 90 spent all last week receiving instruction in commercial vehicle enforcement. Last Thursday, Class 90 took part in practical exercises at the Casper Port of Entry despite harsh winter weather and having some highways closed hampering the amount of trucks entering the Port.

With assistance from Casper Port of Entry Officers, Troopers from Casper and Lusk, and class instructors, Class 90 issued 10 permits totaling $528.16, fielded nine overweight reports with only two of those weighed being legal and issued four citations totaling $6,130. One citation alone was for $5,430 due to violations discovered.

“Our commercial vehicle training is key for our recruits to gain real life hands-on experience in gaining commercial vehicle safety compliance through education and enforcement,” WHP Officials said.
