Roadworks

We all know it can be frustrating waiting in the traffic, but we must remember they are just doing their job to maintain and update the roads we are driving on.

The speeds around roadworks are always reduced. This is due to the fact they are making changes to the road that may make a faster speed unsafe and to make sure you are going slowly to get used to the new road.

This is also since you are in a vehicle and many of these workers are not. Their safety while they are working hard to keep our roads safe is very important.

Make sure you stick to the speed and follow any other signs or directions given.

Never Drive faster than your guardian angel can fly

Speeding is one of the top causes of accidents.

They consider how many lanes, how much on street parking, how many houses and traffic accident reports for the area.
