I-70 through the Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial Tunnel could receive up to 9 inches of snow. Check your tire tread depth, and truckers, have your chains ready.

The higher the speed, the higher the risk of injury. Depending on the weight of your bicycle, your skill level, and the road surface, at 20 mph it will take approximately 30 feet to fully stop. Slow down and announce yourself before passing on the left of a nearby group or person.

October 12, 2007
On October 11, 2007 at 4:40 p.m., Trooper Templeton and Trooper Scott Hinshaw were assisting a motorist who had lost one of two plastic farm chemical tanks he was hauling on a flatbed trailer in the median northbound on I-76, east of 96th Avenue. A Ford pickup driven by a juvenile heading northbound on I-76 approached the scene, not paying attention to traffic, and swerved to avoid hitting the slower moving vehicles in front of him. The juveniles' maneuver placed him in the median, rear-ending the motorists trailer and striking Troopers Templeton and Hinshaw, but missing the motorist they were assisting. Both Troopers suffered serious injuries and were transported to local hospitals. Unfortunately, Trooper Templeton succumbed to his injuries on October 12, 2007.
Templeton entered the Patrol July 2003.
