Truck drivers continuing to make their deliveries during the COVID-19 pandemic were able to get some protective equipment, with some help from Indiana State Police. Master Trooper Jim Strong and Sgt. Dale Turner passed out 1,000 face masks Friday at the I-94 rest park in LaPorte County, with help from Darin Jones with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
The administration recently got a million cotton masks, after working with FEMA and trucking stakeholders, according to State Police.
Some of those were handed out at five Indiana rest areas by personnel from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, Indiana Motor Truck Association, and Indiana State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division.
