The Coolest Ride on the Road: Idaho's Snowplow Naming Contest

This winter, get ready to see your school spirit on the roads of Idaho. The Idaho Transportation Department and the Idaho Department of Education have teamed up for a fun contest that lets students across the state name two snowplows in each region. But what makes this cool ride so special? The idea is simple: students can suggest names for the plows, and the best ones will get to see their creation on the road. But it's not just about having fun - the goal is to spread a message of winter driving safety awareness. By making drivers slow down and be patient, we can all stay safe on the roads.

The contest is part of a bigger plan to engage students in winter driving safety before they even get behind the wheel. Partnering with schools is key, as it helps make the safety message more relatable and interesting to young drivers. And who knows - you might just see some student-named plows on the road this winter!
