VIRGINIA, USA — The Virginia State Police have partnered with the Virginia Trucking Association, along with U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, to kickstart a high-visibility human trafficking prevention campaign to help drivers make a difference in the lives of victims.
The initiative, called “Operation Safe Passage,” will involve state police troopers stationed at various truck stops, rest areas and service centers handing out educational material and speaking with drivers to educate them about the warning signs of human trafficking. The troopers will also conduct routine motor carrier inspections.
