Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
You drive on a highway and pass an orange diamond sign that reads ROAD WORK AHEAD. You do not see any workers yet. What is the best action?
Correct answer: Stay alert and prepare early for lane shifts, flaggers or slow traffic
Why
Work-zone signs give their message far in advance, so that every driver has time to change lanes or slow down smoothly. Inside a work zone, lanes can be narrow and there may be no room to escape a sudden stop. Watch for the flagger sign and for cones or drums that guide you through the work area.
