## Resource

Idaho just flipped the script on truck speeds—starting July 1, big rigs can legally hit 80 mph on select interstates, matching passenger cars. But here’s the catch: those 80,000-pound beasts need nearly three football fields to stop, raising alarms about reaction times and safety. While some say it’s just about driver responsibility, others fear inconsistency could create chaos on the road. With Idaho’s deadliest driving season ahead, everyone’s watching to see how this high-speed change plays out.
