36% of Iowa's traffic deaths involve impairment. GTSB is partnering with law enforcement to educate Iowans about the dangers of impaired driving. If you plan to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with more than corned beef and cabbage... plan for a sober driver. #stPatricksDay2025

Purchasing tacos for everyone in line is a regrettable decision, but not as bad as driving home buzzed. Make a plan before you head out tonight. #buzzeddrivingisdrunkdriving

Speeding might save you a minute, but it could cost a fine... or a life. Is it really worth it? Drive within the speed limit.

Impaired drivers can’t accurately assess their own impairment – which is why no one should drive after using any impairing substances. Remember: If you feel different, you drive different.

It’s National Work Zone Awareness Week! Governor Reynolds reminds us that as drivers WE ALL play a key role in work zone safety. If we eliminate distractions and reduce to work zone speeds, we can all go home safely. #NWZAW #Orange4Safety
