An orange diamond sign shows a person holding a shovel. What should you expect ahead?

Correct answer: Road work with people on or near the road, so slow down and watch for them
Why
In a New Jersey work zone, traffic fines are doubled from the first warning sign to the end of the work area. Workers stand close to moving traffic, so obey the posted work-zone speed, do not tailgate, and keep your full attention on the road. Turn on your headlights so workers and other drivers can see you.
