Tips for driving in construction zones
Driving safely through construction zones can help protect our loved ones at work on construction sites. Follow these safety tips while driving through a construction zone to keep everyone safe:
- Go slow in the zone – speed limits are often lowered in construction zones to keep workers safe around traffic and keep drivers safe from possible hazards
- Stay alert and proceed with caution
- Pay close attention to work zone flaggers and directional signs and/or devices
- Keep a safe distance behind the car in front of you
- Keep up with the traffic flow
- Do not change lanes in construction zones
- Avoid distracted driving including changing radio stations or using mobile phones
- Keep an eye on workers and their equipment
- Be patient – work zones are necessary to improve our roads and make them safer
