Road side workers have a dangerous job already.  Working with large construction tools and outdoors with heavy machinery is a demanding job.  The dangers involved in this type of work are increased with the addition of other drivers near the work zone.

Many individuals do not pay full attention when driving.  This is unfortunate because these distracted drivers are responsible for a significant portion of accidents that take place.  These drivers will not notice many of the warnings about workers present which can lead to accidents and worker injuries.
