As winter weather has moved into the area, the Indianola Police Department wants to remind drivers to pay extra attention during the winter months. Indianola Police Chief Brian Sher tells KNIA News that braking time will take much longer in the snow and ice, so follow from a longer distance, and don’t travel unnecessarily during a winter weather event. Chief Sher also said to make sure to have emergency supplies in your car such as a coat, make sure your cell phone is charged, and never leave your car running in the closed garage to warm it up before traveling.
