Colorado Providing Special Website For Truckers

DENVER (AP) - The Colorado State Patrol is providing special information for truckers on the Interstate 70 mountain corridor to help them prepare for changing highway conditions.

The state patrol says truckers face special challenges and they need up-to-date warnings when weather or highway problems occur.

A new website, accessible on the road from smartphones, provides updates on road conditions, safe parking and chain-up locations as well as a video on laws for commercial vehicles and motor carrier safety trips.
