Explanation
A flagger is a worker who directs drivers to stop, proceed with caution, or change lanes in work zones. A flagger has the same authority as a traffic sign or officer, meaning you can receive a ticket for failing to follow their instructions. When driving through construction or road maintenance zones, reduce your speed, stay alert, and obey all signs and flaggers.
