"Speed limits save lives and you can too by slowing down, buckling up, and driving engaged," explained Denise Dinnauer, aggressive driving program specialist with the Idaho Office of Highway Safety (OHS). "Driving engaged means free from distractions, actively scanning the road ahead, and following the speed limit to safely react to any dangers that occur."
