The DOT plow trucks are doing an amazing job in western Iowa clearing the roads…problem is… this blowing snow is no blowing across the roadways causing ice pack on the lanes. You can’t go normal speed when wet and hit an ice patch and expect to maintain control. Still slow down

🚲Fairly certain that the SMILE says it all! ISP Chaplain Bill Clark and I were able to gift this perfectly sized bicycle to Ms. Nora of Council Bluffs yesterday THANKS to a donation by Artisan Management Group. Safety first! Nora's mother was prepared with a pink bike helmet!

Dense fog in Adair Co. Please make sure your headlights are ON, increase following distance and pay extra attention to those who might not have their headlights or taillights on! Lastly, DON’T Pass in the fog… the risk is not worth the reward of being a few minutes early!

With freezing rain, drizzle and wintery mix over the next couple of days! BE PREPARED…to turn ON your headlights so you can be seen, ICE ( the stuff you sometimes can’t see) buildup on windshield and more importantly the roads. Slow down, leave early, 4x4 doesn’t matter on ice!

A 2006 study from Virginia Tech Transportation Institute found almost 80% of crashes and 65% of near crashes involved some sort of driver inattention in 3 seconds prior to the crash! Imagine what that number might be in 2022 with even more distractions you must fight to avoid?

DAY 2……Be careful out there! Keep an eye out for bicycles and avoid the route areas in a car to keep yourself on time! Expect delays on HWY 20 near Galva as the cyclists must cross HWY 20! Stay safe! #RAGBRAI22
