- Keke, are you driving? Then buckle up and pay attention because you've got us #inourfeelings over all this unsafe driving. #WorkZoneWednesday #InMyFeelingsChallenge #KekeChallenge
- You think you're @KyleBusch? Well you're not. The highways aren't speedways. Please slow down. #WorkZoneWednesday @NASCAR
- REMINDER: Bridges and overpasses should NOT be used for shelter during severe storms. In fact, it puts you and other drivers in more danger. @okem @OHPtraffic @OKTurnpike #okwx
- WINTER WX: Semi-trailer trucks traveling between OKC and Dallas/Fort Worth are strongly discouraged from using I-35. Semis are unable to traverse across I-35 in the Turner Falls/Arbuckle area because of the slick and hazardous conditions on the incline.
- WINTER WEATHER- We’re a little salty after hearing false rumors that we’re out of salt & sand. We have plenty of supplies! In fact, crews spent today adding even more salt to our main yards from stockpiles, so we are ready to go for whatever Mother Nature brings next.🧂❄️ #okwx
- DO NOT seek shelter under an overpass! You force people into dangerous situations with no way of escape, and block emergency vehicles from getting to people that need help! #okwx
- Oklahoma's only railroad tunnel, the Jenson Tunnel in Le Flore County, was built in the 1880s. #TBT
- SAFETY REMINDER: Bridges and culverts are NOT safe places to shelter during severe storms, which typically produce heavy rainfall. Flood waters are the No. 1 killer out of all natural disasters. #okwx

- #WeRemember the 168 lives lost on April 19, 1995, including 11 @USDOTFHWA Oklahoma Division employees, and seek to honor them each day. @OKCNM #okc
