Can you believe this?!? Trooper Davenport stopped a driver South of Fort Dodge who sped past an ambulance with its lights on, reaching speeds of 130+ mph! 😱 The driver said she was "too tired to notice her speed"... Let’s prioritize safety on the roads!

The Iowa Highway Safety Patrol was established 90 years ago. In 1935, 59 patrolmen, 12 motorcycles and 37 Ford Tudor V8s hit the road. Later in the year the word ‘safety’ was dropped from the organization’s name. Today, we are known as the Iowa State Patrol.
