Move Over! Slow Down! Drive to stay alive and keep others alive!

ONE week. FOUR work zone crashes!

We’re grateful no one was seriously injured, but we’re frustrated. The men and women working in our work zones are simply doing their jobs—important jobs that keep Maryland’s roads safe. Drivers have an equally important responsibility to keep them safe in return.

Once again, we're reminding EVERY DRIVER to move over or slow down, drive sober and pay attention. We all want to go home. Move over or slow down. It's the law!
