Idaho Legislature a Flop Says Editorials and Colums
A highly Democratic Idaho Legislature is labeled a flop in editorials and columnists. Critics like Perry Swisher and Ed Emerine cite weak leadership in both chambers, minimal progressive measures, and partisan battles. They discuss tax policy, education funding, highway safety, and the need for stronger driver education and natural resources planning.

Driver Education Gaps Fuel Teen Driving Risks
Teenagers make up 72 percent of the driving population yet account for 12 percent of all accidents and 10 percent of highway deaths. Only one quarter of teens in driver education meet national standards, and just 25 high schools offer on the road night driving training. Night crashes remain the top danger with three times as many fatalities per mile after dark.
