Road repairmen work under considerable pressure.
Not only must they concentrate on their work, but they must also be on the
constant lookout for oncoming traffic. So show consideration for people doing a
tough job, slowdown in good time and keep well clear of the repair works site.
Some ways you can reduce risks on the road:
Keep a sufficient distance between yourself
and the vehicle ahead.
Apply the three-second rule.
If someone is driving too close on your tail,
take your foot of the acceleration and to increase the safety margin.
Be prepared for action at all times, i.e. by
being extra whenever you think things could start getting dangerous.
Be prepared to brake, i.e. by moving your
foot over to the brake pedal and being ready to stop in the shortest possible
distance.
