Patchy fog is expected mainly over portions of southern Kentucky this morning. In some rural, low-lying areas visibilities may fall below 1 mile at times, so take it slow on the commute this morning and be alert for slow-moving traffic, pedestrians, and animals.

Crash Responder Safety Week kicks off in Kentucky this week.

When you see flashing lights roadside, slow down and move over when safe. From first responders to tow operators and highway workers, give them room to work.

Their lives depend on it.

Stay safe and spooky this Halloween, Kentucky! 🎃

🚗 Drivers:

👻 Trick-or-treaters:
• Follow signs and use crosswalks
• Look both ways before crossing
• Be visible!

Falling back doesn’t mean falling asleep at the wheel! ⏰

Keep an eye out for walkers, bikers & wildlife as daylight gets shorter.

“Buckle up, phone down…” 🎶

Yep, we know it’s probably stuck in your head now.

But if our jingle is going to stick with you, we might as well make sure the message does as well:

Buckle up, put the phone down, and keep your eyes on the road.
