Work Zone Safety Tips
- Pay Attention: Watch for signs, speed limits, and lane closures. Stay alert until you’ve exited the work zone.
- Expect the Unexpected: Traffic patterns and obstacles, such as barriers or workers, can change without warning. Stay prepared.
- Avoid Distractions: Focus on the road. Put away your phone and other distractions.
- Slow Down: Fines double in work zones. Obey posted speed limits and drove cautiously.
- Plan: Check traffic updates, leave early, and expect delays to reduce stress.
- Stay Calm and Patient: Workers are improving roads for your future drives. Slow down, as it only takes a few extra minutes.
- Keep a Safe Distance: Keep a safe distance to avoid rear-end collisions common in work zones.
- Follow Traffic Flow: Merge early and avoid last-minute lane changes to keep traffic moving smoothly.
