The Motorist Assist Patrol employee was fatally stabbed on the side of I-10 Sunday afternoon.

Kids will be returning to school in the next few weeks and the Louisiana DOTD wants to remind you of the rules of the road for school bus safety.

When he started, he was a student-employee and, in that same year, he became a permanent employee of the department. That year was 1955.
