Does your Halloween celebration involve indulging in a spooky cocktail or ghostly potion?
Make sure you plan for a safe, sober ride:
🍬 Designate a sober driver
🍬 Book a rideshare or taxi
Remember Kentucky: Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving.
New drivers need more than a license; they need a solid game plan. 🎯
Check out the video to hear from some Kentucky teen drivers who are putting the lessons they learned from the Safe Teen Driving Challenge into practice!

Welcome to another Friday Flashback, where we check out oiled roads! 🛢️
Back in the days of dirt roads, crews sprayed oil to act as a binder and help control dust and bind loose particles together, creating a more stable, less dusty road.

Widespread rainfall totals <1.5" are expected with isolated higher amounts of 2-5" possible within the yellow outlined area. Lesser potential for these isolated totals exists in the white outlined area. Rain could be heavy at times within storms. Take care and enjoy the rain!
ALT A probability map of more than an inch of rain is displayed along with two outlined areas discussed on the graphic with potential to see isolated areas of 2-5 inches. A primary wave of showers and embedded storms has the potential to produce heavy downpours. With this potential comes the threat of localized flash flooding. Widespread amounts of 0.5-1.5" are expected although isolated totals of 2-5" are possible highlighted in yellow. Within the white region exists another area to watch for these isolated higher totals, although confidence is lower there. Take care and enjoy the rain!
Today, Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman joined KYTC, state, and local leaders to cut the ribbon on a new, 1.5-mile three-lane section of U.S. 421 in Harlan County, improving safety and connectivity between southeastern Kentucky and Virginia! 🛣️

It's foggier than pea soup this morning! May not be able to see more than 1/4 mile in front of you. This just means to take extra care driving and leave extra distance between you and those in front of you on the road. Fog will mix away by mid-morning at the latest.
ALT It's foggier than pea soup this morning! What is being displayed is a Dense Fog Advisory across all of central KY and almost all of our southern Indiana counties this morning. May not be able to see more than 1/4 mile in front of you. This just means to take extra care driving and leave extra distance between you and those in front of you on the road. Fog will mix away by mid-morning at the latest for a warm and pleasant day this afternoon.
As the leaves begin to fall, there’s no better time to take in one of the many scenic highways in Kentucky! 🍂🛣️
