9. If you see orange construction signs and cones on a freeway, you must:

Slow down because the lane ends ahead.

Be prepared for workers and equipment ahead.

As you enter a work zone, signs and message boards will warn you of workers, slow-moving equipment, and/or closed lanes ahead. You should reduce your speed and be prepared to slow down or stop.

Keep driving until you see the vehicle.

Pull to the curb and look to see if it is on your street.

Slow down. Don't stop until you see it.

Speed up and turn at the next intersection.

If you hear a siren or an air horn close by but do not know exactly where the emergency vehicle is, safely pull over to the right side of the road and stop until you are sure it is not headed toward you.

11. Minimum speed signs are designed to:

Keep traffic flowing smoothly.

Show current local road conditions.

Test future traffic signal needs.

Ensure pedestrian safety.

To keep a smooth traffic flow, some highways have minimum speed limits. If you drive more slowly than the minimum speed limit, you can halt the traffic flow and create dangerous conditions. Even if there is no posted minimum speed limit, those driving too slowly can be dangerous and may receive a citation.

Turn left.

Turn right.

Come to a stop.

A steady red light

A police officer

Put one car length between you and the car ahead.

Look only at the car in front of you while driving.

Keep your eyes moving to look for possible hazards.
