  @Austin870225863 😆 Well, I know it's frustrating, but that's a speed limit, meaning the max you are allowed to go on that road, not a required speed to use the road. If you're really curious here is the Iowa law on speed restrictions https://t.co/Kik1oFXMAG

  You may have noticed the rest area on EB I-80 near Adair was closed, but don't worry, we plan to have it back open this afternoon. It was closed following a truck fire earlier this week. DNR has been managing the incident and any cleanup needed.

  Every parent dreams of seeing their children grow up safe, so we teach our kids how to avoid danger. But a critical safety seed that’s often not planted is burying the cell phone while driving. What's your family's transportation safety culture? https://t.co/yc2PeW0VxA https://t.co/7mJ0sIudIq

  A stalled vehicle can be a gamechanger. If a motorist hits it, you may have costly legal/repair issues and tow fees. If a snowplow hits it, your vehicle may be done, and one less plow on the road when you need them most. Please remove it or it may be towed at your expense. https://t.co/EGfgICFLWS

  Think of the ways you protect the people you love, and how their lives would drastically change if you died today in a crash you could prevent. Shouldn't the way you drive be one of the top ways you protect them? https://t.co/mATQIRsT2X
