Missouri’s Fourth of July Safety Alert

Missouri’s sounding the alarm ahead of the Fourth of July weekend, warning of deadly crashes and impaired driving last year—with 13 fatalities and nearly 1,000 collisions. Officials are pushing for smart choices on the road and water, urging sober rides or designated captains, mandatory life jackets, and no drinking while boating. Fireworks must stay ashore, and dry conditions mean no sparks near grass or leaves—keep water and extinguishers ready. Campfires and outdoor burning are off-limits in conservation areas, and watch where you park—catalytic converters can ignite dry grass. If fire breaks out, call 911. Stay safe and let the holiday be memorable for the right reasons. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
