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.

Keep you car in tip-top shape
These few simple checks will keep your car on the road a lot longer.
– Check your tyres: Check your air pressure on a regular basis and check the tread while you are doing this as well.
– Check your oil: Checking your engine oil regularly will ensure that the engine will be able to run smoothly.
– Water: make sure you check your water regularly.

Certain councils and areas may vary so make sure you read the sign or check with the local council in your area.

There is plenty of signage around to let you know where you can and cannot park.
If there is no signage there are a few simple rules to follow and fines may occur if you park in any of the following:
Make sure you stick to the speed limits as they have been set for a reason and the people that set them must take a lot of things into consideration to ensure they are consistent.
They consider how many lanes, how much on street parking, how many houses and traffic accident reports for the area.
