Keeping Your Family Safe On Rural Roads

This is a must-hear podcast for every family who drives. Roadways and highways in rural areas look safe because they are less crowded, but they account for 75% of fatalities. Factors such as high speeds, distractions, and lack of patience combined with wildlife, agriculture equipment, and a false sense of security create dangerous dynamics. Jessie Barrus, Idaho Transportation Department District Engineer, and Cory Juber, Idaho State Police Trooper from North Central Idaho, share their experiences with rural road issues and give advice for drivers, farmers, and all who share these corridors.
