Work Zone Awareness Video
I mentioned last week that it's Work Zone Safety week right? Well here's a video produced by the Washington State Department of Transportation on driving safely through construction zones. And it has a plot twist at the end so don't quit watching after you get through the touchy-feely good stuff with the kids.
A short video has been developed on work zone safety issues and FHWA's Work Zone Safety Program and the National Work Zone Awareness Week.Enjoy this quick video illustrating the chaos distracted driving can create even if you're pushing a shopping cart!
