KDOT Targets Labor Day Travelers With Online Tool

kandrive.org

As travelers plan to hit the road this Labor Day weekend, the Kansas Department Of Transportation is offering useful tools online. KDOT Spokesperson Ann Williamson says the traveler assist system – kandrive.org – can be a helpful resource.

"You can go see camera pictures of the roads, you can also map out your route and then there are links to other travel info, as well as being able to see the weather," she says.

Also, Williamson says, the campaign "You Drink, You Drive, You Lose" is still in effect through Monday, Sept. 5th. Law enforcement agencies including the Kansas Highway Patrol are out working overtime to stop impaired drivers and enforce seat belt regulations.
