Headlights don't just help you see better in the dark -- headlights help other drivers see you in fog or inclement weather! Turn on your headlights! #wyoroad

Weather is getting nicer, and that means greater heatstroke risks to children and pets left inside vehicles. Prevent a tragedy - in 10 minutes, a car can heat up by as much as 20 degrees. #wyoroad youtube.com/watch?v=Wm9kf8…
