A quick glance at your phone can cost a life. Be the FOCUSED driver — keep your eyes on the road where they belong.

Did you know? Sending or reading a text takes your eyes off the road for five seconds. At a speed of 55 mph, that equates to traveling the length of a football field blindfolded. Be the FOCUSED driver and always park the phone before getting behind the wheel.

Make sure your vehicle is road ready before inclement weather strikes. This can help reduce the chance of a mechanical breakdown. Should your vehicle become disabled, move to the shoulder, activate hazard lights, STAY IN your vehicle and dial #77 for help. #MDOTsafety

Join us and our industry partners this afternoon at 12:40 for a moment of silence as we remember the six workers who died a year ago in a work zone crash on I-695 in Woodlawn. Honor their memory by talking to a friend and family member about the importance of work zone safety.
