(matt) ktiv's tommie clark tells us why, and t tked with troopers about the wawathe change has affected drivers.

in that amount of time, the number has gone down to 377. ...so what does that mean for drivers? the chief of the iowa state patrol said one of the big reasons for the shortage is the retirement rate. 30 years ago, there were budgets set to run bigger academy classes with more recruits, but "as time progresses those individuals are now starting to retire so we're receiving a lot more retirements then we are hires, which iturn is t reduction," said iowa state patrol chief, colonel michael van berkum. another reason is the expensive equipment they use. as technology improves, troopers have to update their vehicles. "it's a tool that helps us respond quicker also analyze what we do on a daily basis to a monthly basis to a yearly basis. it but there does come a cost with that," said iowa state

patrol chief, colonel michael van berkum. they can now identity response calls quicker too. although the retirement rate and technology upgrades have caused less troopers to be out on the road... "it still stands true today that we're out here just making sure that people get from point a o point b and that they're doing it legally, lawfully and safely," said public information officer, sgt. nate ludwig. "we're out there to serve at all hours of the day, and weekends, and holidays just to make sure that citizens of iowa are safe and arrive at their locations and are able to enjoy the things that they want to," said iowa state patrol chief, colonel michael van berkum. colonel van berkum says the iowa state patrol will always serve iowans the best they can-- no matter the amount of troopers there are out on the roads. tommie clark....tiv news 4. >> troopers say they hope to soon t numbers back up to what they were a decade ago. rk freund, in for brbr pautsch tonight - with an extended sportscast tonight.
