Safety Tip of the Week
Give ‘Em A Break
It’s construction season in and around Pullman. According to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT):
Washington averages almost 850 highway work zone injuries each year. 96 percent of the people injured or killed in work zone collisions are drivers and their passengers. The top three causes of work zone crashes are distracted/inattentive driving, following too close and speeding.
Distracted/inattentive drivers are not prepared for sudden slowdowns and last minute lane changes in work zones.
Work zone survival tips:
Slow Down – drive the posted speeds, they’re there for your safety.
Be Kind – workers are out there helping to keep you safe and improve the roadways.
Pay Attention – both to workers directing you and surrounding traffic; put your phone down when behind the wheel.
Stay Calm – expect delays, leave early or take an alternate route if possible; no meeting or appointment is worth risking someone’s life.
