Remember: #TurnAroundDontDrown

TRP Aubrey & I visited the KCKCC campus for an alcohol awareness assembly. The attendees were all student athletes from the volleyball & soccer teams.

The students drove a serpentine course on the trikes with drunk goggles and performed the Walk and Turn test.

School pick up and drop off can be hectic, but there's always time to make sure your kids put on their seat belts before the vehicle starts to roll.

If you see smoke as you're driving, be prepared to slow down.

You may need to pull off the road for a few minutes or choose another route so your view is clear.

But remember bicyclists & pedestrians are prohibited on interstates.
