The Idaho Transportation Department and Idaho State Police are teaming up to provide a free, informative and engaging winter driving safety class on Saturday, December 13 in Lewiston as the region prepares for icy roads and adverse weather.
The classes are designed to help drivers prepare for Idaho’s winter conditions by covering topics like vehicle readiness, proper equipment, defensive driving techniques, and how to safely share the road with snowplows. Instructors include state troopers and ITD operators who bring firsthand experience from years of working on Idaho’s roads and responding to emergencies during severe weather.
While these classes are open to everyone of all ages and skill levels, they are especially valuable for:
- Young drivers with limited winter driving experience
- New drivers, including those preparing to start driver’s education in the next year
- New residents facing their first Idaho winter
