2021 Safe Driving Awareness Week



2021 Palouse Safe Driving Awareness Week 

Promoting safe driving is our top priority at the Palouse Regional Transportation Planning Organization and we are excited to present the 2021 Safe Driving Awareness Week! Even in these uncertain times of the pandemic, we are excited to promote and celebrate safe driving. We hope you will join us for a week full of fun (virtual) events, prizes, and plenty of opportunities to promote safe driving. April is National Distracted Driving Awareness month and the PRTPO would like to remind everyone to drive distraction-free. Removing all distractions is one of the best, and easiest changes one can make to make our roadways a safer place.  We are excited to promote safe driving habits and work towards making our roadways a safer place.
