Kentucky Office Of Highway Safety Provides Columbia Police Department With Two Preliminary Breath Test Devices

From the Columbia Police Department: We wanted to share some positive news regarding the Columbia Police Department’s ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of our community.

Earlier this week, representatives from the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety visited the Columbia Police Department. During their visit, they generously provided the department with two Alco-Sensor 3 Preliminary Breath Test (PBT) devices. These portable devices will be a valuable tool for our officers on patrol, allowing them to quickly and easily assess a person’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) when they suspect impairment. This preliminary test helps officers make informed decisions in the field, contributing to safer roadways for everyone.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to Rob Richardson and Kyle Stork from the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety for their continued support of the Columbia Police Department and their dedication to keeping the citizens of Kentucky safe. Their partnership is greatly appreciated.

(Kila Kean, Secretary – Columbia Police Department)
