Summer Driving and Highway Work Zone Safety Tips

Before embarking on a summer road trip, take your vehicle for a maintenance safety check of the fluids, filters, belts, tires, lights, wiper blades, and car battery. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) provides helpful summer driving tips and suggestions for keeping a well-stocked emergency roadside kit.

Summer road trips mean more time on highways and navigating safely through highway work zones. Construction can add additional time and stress to both the summer road trip and daily commute, and the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) raises awareness concerning work zone safety throughout the year.

The message is to focus, slow down, and stay alert when driving through work zones.

Reckless or distracted driving is dangerous for workers and drivers. In Maryland from 2019 – 2023, one out of every two people killed in work-zone crashes were motorists. The Maryland Highway Safety Office launched Be the Driver – a highway safety campaign focused on safe driving behaviors. Remember:

  • Give room: When safe, motorists should move over a lane to leave room for roadway workers to safely do their jobs.
  • Distractions, following too closely, and driving too fast are the leading causes of work-zone crashes.
  • Drivers of large vehicles should allow extra space to safely navigate work zones.
  • Plan ahead: Spring and summer are heavy roadway construction seasons. For a complete listing of major roadway projects in Maryland, click here.
