William Goodwin+FollowIdaho’s new 30-day tow law: What you need to knowIf your car gets towed in Idaho, you now have just 30 days to claim it before the tow company can legally sell it. The new law means faster notifications for owners—by email, text, or mail—but the clock starts ticking from the first notice. On the plus side, you can grab your personal stuff from the car even if you haven’t paid the fees yet, and tow companies must post their rates publicly. This change gives towing operators more power, so it’s more important than ever to keep track of where you park. How do you feel about this shift? #Cars #Idaho #CarTowing00Share

James Smith+FollowBoise’s e-bike law shakeup: What’s changing?Idaho drivers may soon have to treat e-bikes just like regular bikes, thanks to a new bill sparked by a Boise crash. After a court case exposed a legal gray area—are e-bikes considered human-powered or not?—lawmakers are stepping in to clarify the rules. If this bill passes, cars will need to watch for e-bikes in bike lanes, and e-bike riders will have to follow the same traffic laws as cyclists. With e-bikes everywhere on the Greenbelt, this update could change how we all share the road. What do you think—should e-bikes get the same rights and responsibilities as traditional bikes? #Cars #Boise #Idaho00Share
peterfoster+FollowBighorn sheep removal in the Owyhees sparks tough debateWildlife officials in Idaho are making the heartbreaking call to remove a small herd of bighorn sheep near Reynolds Creek due to a deadly pneumonia outbreak. The move is meant to protect hundreds of other bighorns in the Owyhees, but it’s hitting locals hard—especially since generations have worked to restore these herds. The disease spreads slowly, giving infected sheep months (even years) to pass it on, so quick action is crucial. Some meat will go to Idahoans in need, but the emotional toll is real. How do you feel about this kind of wildlife management? #Business #Industry #Idaho00Share
kingabigail+FollowIdaho’s Medicaid cuts hit mental health hardIdaho’s recent Medicaid cuts are already making life tougher for people who rely on mental health support. Providers say they’re seeing more folks end up in ERs, jails, or without the care and medication they need—just weeks after the changes kicked in. Some local leaders are calling the cuts “cruel” and “devastating,” warning that the ripple effects could mean higher property taxes as emergency services pick up the slack. What do you think—should lawmakers step in to restore these services, or is there another way to support mental health in our community? #Health #BodyHealth #Idaho10Share
Lauren Cooper+FollowHighway 55 crash: Plow vs. box truckA box truck tried to squeeze past an ITD snow plow on the right side along Highway 55, and it didn’t end well—the truck clipped the plow’s side blade, causing a traffic slowdown. For anyone who drives this stretch, it’s a real reminder of how risky it is to pass snow plows, especially in winter conditions. Have you ever seen someone try a move like this? What do you think is the best way to keep our roads safer during snow season? Let’s talk about what you’ve seen out there. #Transportation #Highway55 #Idaho00Share
Justin Dixon+FollowTamarack Resort opens early with fresh snowTamarack Resort is kicking off the winter season today after a big snowstorm, and locals are already buzzing about the expanded terrain—two new ski runs and 50 extra acres, all part of a post-fire recovery. For now, only the upper mountain is open, but crews are working nonstop to open more lifts and runs as snow keeps falling. The Mid-Mountain Lodge is ready with food and drinks, and the Dial-A-Ride service makes getting around easy. With the holidays here, how do you feel about Tamarack’s new terrain and early opening? Anyone planning to hit the slopes this week? #Travel #TamarackResort #Idaho00Share
Lisa Ramirez+FollowIdaho’s medical school debate heats upIdaho’s future doctors are caught in a tug-of-war over where the state should invest in medical education. With passionate voices backing both the established WWAMI program and the newer ICOM school, the stakes couldn’t be higher for students, universities, and rural communities desperate for more physicians. The state’s task force, however, sidestepped making tough calls, leaving lawmakers to sort out who gets funding—and who might lose out. With so much on the line, how should Idaho prioritize its limited resources: proven partnerships or new opportunities? What would you want to see for Idaho’s next generation of doctors? #Health #BodyHealth #Idaho00Share
