Colonel Michael A. Turner, superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, encourages everyone to make good decisions regarding their New Year’s celebration. No one wants to start 2026 with a traffic crash or DWI arrest. During the 2024-2025 New Year’s period, one person was killed and 118 injured in 264 traffic crashes in Missouri.
The 2026 New Year’s holiday counting period begins at 6 p.m. Wednesday, December 31, 2025, and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, January 4, 2026.
If your plans to welcome the new year include alcohol, please designate a sober driver or utilize a ride share service or taxi to ensure you arrive home safely. The roadway is no place for a driver under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
If you plan to travel this New Year’s, remember to buckle up and make sure all your passengers do the same.
