One of our troopers recently conducted a traffic stop on Interstate 40. During the stop, the driver voluntarily disclosed the presence of illegal narcotics in the vehicle. A subsequent probable cause search of the vehicle led to the discovery of 16 pounds of methamphetamine concealed in the trunk. The driver was arrested on the scene and booked into jail. This traffic stop highlights the critical role routine enforcement plays in keeping Oklahoma and the broader United States safe from the dangers of drug trafficking.

Congratulations LT Larry Saxon #73 on your retirement after 40 years of service to the State of Oklahoma!

LT Saxon began his career with DPS as a Capitol Patrolman in 1985. He was accepted in the 46th Oklahoma Highway Patrol Academy in February of 1991. After completing the academy, he was assigned to Troop A, Cleveland/McClain County, where he remained until 2003. He received a Trooper of the Year award in 1995 for his efforts following the Oklahoma City Bombing. In 2003, Saxon transferred from Troop A to Troop ES, where he worked as security for the Lieutenant Governor. He was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in March of 2004 and returned to Troop A. LT Saxon then transferred to Troop R in 2005, where he has spent the remainder of his career.

LT Saxon has been present for every special event at the Capitol, including presidential rallies, protests, and notably, the 3-week-long Teacher’s Rally. He has been an LEDT instructor, involved in numerous Governor’s inaugurations, and faithfully served the people of the state of Oklahoma.

We wish him the best in retirement!

The attached graphic illustrates the average number of calls for service per 24 hour period that the affected agencies are expected to incur following OHP reallocating troopers to areas with less law enforcement presence. These figures are based on three years of historical call data.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol will continue to support agencies statewide through our specialized divisions, including the Size and Weights Division, which remains available to assist any agency—anytime, anywhere.

This resource relocation plan is a proactive effort to enhance public safety in areas with limited law enforcement coverage. As the needs of our communities evolve, OHP remains committed to adapting our efforts to meet those challenges.

We are confident that the agencies in the affected areas will continue to provide the high level of service on the interstates that Oklahomans expect and deserve.
