    Verde Valley AZ (May 21, 2015) – Drivers taking to the state’s highways over Memorial Day weekend will not encounter any full closures for construction or maintenance work, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

    ADOT and its contractors will give drivers a break from closures from Friday afternoon to Monday night in an effort to support safe holiday weekend travel.

    As part of the state’s “Stay Alert – Stay Alive” safety campaign, drivers are urged to focus on the following safe-driving recommendation:

    • Check your vehicle, including the tire pressure
    • Allow extra travel time and be prepared for unscheduled closures due to crashes, disabled vehicles or other incidents
    • Get some rest before traveling – fatigue is a serious safety risk
    • Never drive while impaired – arrange for a designated driver in advance
    • Use caution in existing work zones
    • Buckle up and obey speed limits
    • Pack extra supplies, including drinking water and snack foods

    Check on highway conditions by visiting ADOT’s Travel Information site at www.az511.gov or by calling 5-1-1. Updates also are available on ADOT’s Twitter feed (@ArizonaDOT).

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
