These crossovers are designed and in place for authorized vehicles only, such as law enforcement, EMS, and maintenance crews. The drivers of these authorized vehicles are trained to use these crossovers safely due to a heightened danger to motorists on the interstate when they are used.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Crashes and resulting personal injuries are a common occurrence as non-authorized vehicles, or members of the general public attempt to use these cross-overs rather than using designated exits and on-ramps. The dangers arise as the motorist, who is presumably in the left, &#8220;fast&#8221; lane, slows down in order to enter the cross-over. Traffic approaching from the rear is coming up fast and because of the rapid pass of distance due to speed, the ability to perceive, react, and slow down is all extended. It is very common for these slowing motorists to be rear-ended, resulting in injury and death.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.racinelaw.net\/blog\/non-authorized-vehicles-median\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Non-Authorized Vehicles in Median\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The speed limit on several portions of the interstate system in Idaho is as high as 80 mph.
