I just want to say a prayer to all the drivers still out on the road still trying to get home for the Christmas Holiday safely. Traffic will be VERY heavy and keep alert so you get home safely. Just remember the Smith Systems and that will help keep you ahead of the rest.

In case anyone is unfamiliar with the Smith System.

The Five Keys are:

1. Aim High in Steering - Avoid Collisions by seeing, evaluating, and acting upon all information available.

2. Get the Big Picture - Fewer mistakes are made when you have the complete traffic picture.

3. Keep Your Eyes Moving - Proper scanning techniques separate safe drivers from people who make costly errors.

4. Leave Yourself an Out - All that separates drivers from a collision is space. Use it to your advantage.

5. Make Sure They See You - Seek eye contact and use your warning devices at the same time

I'm headed home but I hear i29 is closed from Iowa to Kansas City line. And that's the route I was going to take too.

The smith systeme boils down to patience and common sense. But good advice just the same.

Where are you heading? I just ran I29 down to US 36 in MO, the roads are fine.
