When driving through work zones, you should:

• A. Use your 4-way flashers or brake lights to warn others
• B. Turn off your headlights
• C. Speed up through the zone
• D. Ignore warnings signs

Answer: (A)

In work zones, it’s crucial to clearly signal to drivers behind you when you’re slowing down or stopping. Using your four-way flashers or brake lights accomplishes this by immediately communicating that you intend to reduce speed or come to a stop, giving following drivers enough time to react and helping protect workers and equipment.

Turning off your headlights reduces visibility for you and others, which is unsafe in a work zone. Speeding up through the zone increases risk to workers and yourself and violates typical posted limits. Ignoring warning signs removes the guidance designed to keep traffic, workers, and equipment safe.
