When driving in a construction zone what should you do?

Reduce your speed
Stop and wait
Keep the same speed
Pass more slowly

The correct answer is: Reduce your speed

In a construction zone, there are typically workers, equipment, or obstructions on the road that can be potential hazards. Reducing your speed allows you to have more time to react and avoid any potential accidents. Stopping and waiting, as mentioned in option B, is not necessary unless directed by a flagger or traffic control. Keeping the same speed, as mentioned in option C, can be dangerous as it may be too fast for the conditions. Passing more slowly, as mentioned in option D, is also not recommended as it may put you and the workers or equipment at risk.
