Rebecca Grover from the Maine Turnpike Authority discussed the upcoming Work Zone Safety Awareness Week to emphasize the importance of safe driving in construction zones. She highlighted that 77% of drivers exceeded the work zone speed limit last summer, with 45% driving over 20 mph above the limit. Distracted driving, including activities like eating and applying makeup, also poses significant risks. Grover noted a rise in work zone crashes in Maine from 2020 to 2025, with 3,000 crashes. The initiative includes a partnership with local schools to educate teens on safe driving. Grover encouraged the public to obey laws, wear orange on April 22, and support the cause.
