Iowa DOT

If you've traveled the interstates in Iowa in the past year, you are familiar with the "fun" little messages on the permanent digital message boards.  These messages are put there for you to think about your driving behavior.  If it can save lives and give you a little laugh...well, that's all positive in my book.

Today I read "Don't Press Your Luck! No Whammies!"  It made me giggle.

So I went out to the Iowa DOT site to look for some past ones...

It's all about the belt...the belt. Just click it.
Pass on the left.                  Drive on the right.
Hey Bobblehead, stop looking at your phone.
It's not a race, leave some space.
Snow plows need room to groom.
Get your head out of your apps. Drive Safely.
Does your blinker not work or what?
Distracted driving is more than texting.
Drive hammered.  Get nailed.

And my all-time favorite:

Not buckled? You're killing me, Smalls. 

(The Sandlot reference for those of you scratching your head.)

Today I wish you safe driving.  (And please, do not text and drive!)
