Mark Verke, a North Dakota Insurance Reserve Fund Loss Control Representative, shared, "Local governmental leaders are charged with the responsibility to provide signage that adequately helps the general public safely navigate the roadway network. While maintaining signs to an acceptable standard is a Federal requirement that seems ominous, it is important to remember that saving lives is the goal. NDIRF proudly partners with NDLTAP to improve signing efforts – reducing risk and helping our friends and family members get home safely every day."
