LAS VEGAS ( KLAS ) – We might not just like the orange cones and the street tasks that sluggish us down, however we should not ignore or disrespect the women and men who placed on the arduous hats and brightly coloured vests to get the work achieved.
As a part of “National Work Zone Awareness Week” the parents on the Utah Dept of Transportation discovered a neat option to drive house the purpose that each individual on each work crew has a household.
They put out a video with the digital camera transferring from employee to employee on a street undertaking as their children describe what the street crew of us do after they’re not on the job.
Snippets embody: “He comes to all my baseball games.”
“He makes me laugh with his funny jokes.”
And:
“He’s the leader of my scout group.”
“She gives me hugs and kisses and keeps me safe.”
The video ends with a message for drivers:
“Because the things they do help all of us, be alert! Our parents are at work!”
I am fairly certain everybody on the Nevada Dept of Transportation would say “here here” to that.
So even when we’re not followers of the detours and slowdowns, let’s give the women and men of transportation some love and respect.
Buckle up, drive fastidiously – and, please put down that telephone.
