Summer is Almost Here, and Driver Safety is in the Air!!

Along with our many community partners, Palouse Regional Transportation Planning Organization will be in attendance for the second consecutive year at the fourth annual Pullman Community Safety Fair organized by the WSU, to promote our Palouse Driver Safety Campaign to the community. The campaign is currently in its third year, which serves as the public awareness campaign for the region with the sole purpose of instilling good driving behaviors amongst our local and regional drivers. Improve driver awareness amongst Young, distracted, and drowsy drivers, and reduce fatal and serious injury crashes for the Palouse region.

The safety fair will take place on Saturday, June 22nd, 10am-2pm at the Brelsford Visitor Center. This is a family-oriented fair, with emphasis on various safety awareness, including direct safety education, and is free to the community.

Our booth will be located inside the center with the other informational booths, and the display will contain driver safety awareness material, distracted driving stats, safe driving pledges, and our popular driving simulator--make sure to take a spin, bring your kids along. Our driving simulator will be located next to our booth (just like last year). Besides us, there will be plenty of interactive activities: Bike Rodeo/Drone Activity (SBC/PPD); Burning House/Fire Hose Activity, Extinguisher Demo, Agility Training Course (PFD), and the first-responder vehicles.

The fair will also have a grand raffle and prizes throughout the day, including delicious refreshments. The Center is also providing various snacks and drinks, including Cougar Gold Cheese!

We invite you to join us to participate and learn about driver safety in the summer through our Campaign. Don't forget to visit and follow us on our social media "Palouse Driver Safety" and our wayfinding website with live tweets, live cameras and various safety tips and materials for Pullman travelers at www.safepalousedrivers. com.

We hope many local and regional community partners will make this day fun for you and your family.

See You at the Fair!
