Dirt roads should be traveled with caution because of washouts and slick conditions at a speed of no more than 35 mph or less when conditions are bad

Traffic should always slow down and use caution when Road Department Employees and equipment are on the road for paved and dirt roads.

  • As you approach a work zone –please slowdown, pay attention and watch for workers. Do not speed or tailgate. Obey flaggers and expect the unexpected.
  • Georgia’s Move Over Law requires drivers to move over one lane, if possible, when approaching stationary highway maintenance and construction workers, law enforcement or emergency vehicles, firefighters, paramedics, tow truck drivers and utility service vehicles in the roadway or on the shoulder and displaying flashing emergency lights.  If traffic is too heavy to move over safely, slow down below the posted speed limit and be prepared to stop.
