Hopefully people would call 511 to check on road conditions from home or the office before they left on their trip. You can check road conditions now on the internet, as mentioned in the article. Actually, promotion of the 511 info number would a good opportunity to also promote not using a cell phone while driving. Here's a potential radio ad for 511 "Want to know if there's a traffic is backed up on your way to (whatever event or destination you want to put here)? Just call 511. If you're driving, pull over and stop before using your cell phone. This message brought to you by Wisconsin DOT." Maybe BFW wants to bring this to WisDOT's attention/make this suggestion to them?
