The coronavirus pandemic is forcing the Oklahoma Highway Patrol's future troopers to train from home.
The 67 cadets were sent home from their live-in academy to prevent the spread of the virus. Right now, cadets are taking classes online and are being sent daily workouts their instructors are trusting them do.
The Highway Patrol hopes its response to the virus won't derail the academy's schedule, as they desperately need new graduates. Even if all of the cadets graduate when the academy ends in July, the patrol will still be short 200 troopers.
