Teen drivers can increase their safety behind the wheel with the New Driver Work Zone Safety Program. Developed jointly by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission, the program teaches new drivers how to navigate work zones safely and confidently.
The free 35-minute online course emphasizes "the why" behind work zone safety for drivers and for the road crews working alongside traffic. The course covers key aspects of work zone safety, including driving practices in work zones, real-life scenarios drivers might encounter, and work zone laws.
Work zones can be hazardous for both drivers and workers, but by understanding Pennsylvania's work zone laws, drivers can be prepared to safely navigate the road ahead.
