Road Safety Reminder for the Week
ROAD WORKERS AND WORK ZONES
Some vehicles are not designed to keep up with the speed of traffic. Farm tractors, animal-drawn carts, and road maintenance vehicles usually travel 25 mph or less. Slow moving vehicles have an orange/red triangle on the back of the vehicles. Look for these vehicles and adjust your speed before you reach them.
Also, be aware that large trucks, bicyclists, and small-underpowered cars lose speed on long or steep hills and take longer to get up to speed when entering traffic.
