safe-driving
What should a driver expect when entering an interstate construction zone?
- Lanes may close and traffic may slow or stop
- All lanes will remain open at the normal speed
- Only the shoulder may be closed, so lane changes are unnecessary
- Construction zones permit drivers to ignore posted controls
Answer: Lanes may close and traffic may slow or stop. Interstate construction zones can change the normal path of travel. A lane may close, and traffic may slow or stop, so the driver needs to watch signs, special speed limits, and flaggers. Assuming every lane stays open encourages a last-second maneuver. The shoulder-only choice understates the risk because the travel lanes themselves may be affected. Posted controls still apply inside the work area. Scan ahead, move into an open lane early, and leave extra space around equipment and workers.
