Slow down. Save a life.
Slow down. Save a life.
Saw this on Facebook earlier this week and wanted to share the story as a reminder to slow down in construction zones. When you see construction, reduce your speed and stay alert.

Public Service Announcement
Attention: Washington Criminals and Kootenai County Taxpayers
Kootenai County Idaho is a preferred destination venue for many Washington residents during July 4th celebrations. In the past, the Kootenai County jail has seen a disproportionate number of jail bookings from our neighbors to the west. Sheriff Robert “Bob” Norris welcomes our law-abiding neighbors, however states that “controlled substance” laws are very different in Idaho than Washington. Fentanyl, methamphetamine, co***ne, are serious felonies in Idaho and one will go to jail or prison. Ma*****na is also against the law and is prohibited. Unlike Washington, Idaho law does not restrict Kootenai County Law Enforcement from enforcing the law and taking violators directly to the Kootenai County “Bed and Breakfast,” our county jail.
This message is clear, if one chooses to possess controlled substances, or engage in any criminal behavior, Seattle, Spokane and the entire state of Washington is a wonderful place to enjoy July 4th celebrations.
The Sheriff said “Don’t come to Kootenai County on vacation, and leave on probation.”
Attention Idaho Legislature: Provide local option taxing authority to the County Board of Commissioners to fund Sheriff Public Safety Operations. Stop placing the burden on property owners, they are low users of Law Enforcement services.

🚥Red means stop, and green means go.
These basic rules apply all the time and are especially important in work zones. If you go when you're not supposed to, you're putting yourself at risk for a head-on collision, especially in the SH-53 and Ramsey Road work zone near Rathdrum.
We're seeing wait times of 5-8 minutes. It can be longer, and it can be shorter. The signals are working.
We know that feels like forever sitting in a car, but please wait until it's your turn to keep everyone on the road safe, including you.
