Abstract: This program shows how to be safe by following some simple, logical procedures for setting up traffic controls. The video also describes the most common kind of work zone accident: the rear-ender. Emphasis is on personal responsibility for safety and awareness of the hazards. With footage from operating work zones, good safety practices, actual safety hazards and unsafe working conditions and procedures are illustrated.
Notes: While this video does convey a clear and effective safety message, traffic control devices and work zone traffic control plans do no meet all requirements of the current MUTCD.
