When you drive through a work zone, you should NOT

  1. Use your phone

  2. Change lanes frequently

  3. Increase speed

  4. Follow the vehicle in front closely

The correct answer is: Increase speed

When driving through a work zone, it is important to maintain a safe speed and be extra cautious. Increasing speed in a work zone can be extremely dangerous as it can decrease your reaction time to unexpected events, lead to accidents with workers or equipment, and result in fines for speeding in a designated work zone. Therefore, not increasing speed is the correct choice when driving through a work zone. Avoiding distractions like using your phone, changing lanes frequently, and following the vehicle in front closely are also crucial safety measures to observe while driving through a work zone, hence they are not the correct choices in this situation.
