Abstract:In 2001, there were 106,000 work zone crashes, accounting for 1 .7 percent of all roadway crashes. These crashes resulted in 1,079 work zone fatalities, or an average of 3 deaths every day. In that same year, 47,000 people were injured in work zone crashes- an average of one injury every 11 minutes. When drivers speed through work zones, crash risks increase.
