DANGER: CONSTRUCTION ZONE! PDF  | Print |

Hundreds of motorists die in construction and maintenance zones annually. Most crashes are rear end collisions. A few tips can make construction zones safer for everyone:

  • Follow the posted speed limit.
  • Focus on the road, not the construction.
  • Keep three seconds of distance between you and the vehicle in front of you.
  • Stay calm and pay attention.
  • Give yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.

Remember, if you have been in an auto accident in a construction zone, and you need a personal injury lawyer, the lawyers at Dallas law firm Street and Ragsdale are here for you. It's always free to contact our lawyers.
