Here in east Idaho, winter means more than just tossing on a beanie or coat. Our winters are no joke and getting to where you need to be becomes much more than just starting your car and heading out. If you're new to driving in the snow and ice, or you've done it many times before, we want to help you stay safe!

In partnership with the Madison Library District, the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and Idaho State Police (ISP) are teaming up to provide a FREE, informative and engaging winter driving safety class in Rexburg in preparation for icy roads and adverse weather conditions.  

This course will be taught by ISP Troopers, local east Idaho law enforcement, and ITD Operators, covering a wide range of topics from proper vehicle preparation, equipment, road conditions, driving tips, crashes, and snowplow safety.

Who should attend?

While these courses are beneficial for drivers of all ages and skill levels, they are especially geared toward young drivers and anyone new to the area who may be preparing for their first winter driving season.   Current teen drivers, or those from ages 14-17 who will be starting their driver's education course within the next year are encouraged to attend.

Anyone that joins us will be able to learn great tips and ask questions of the responders.
