The Saskatchewan Heavy Construction Association (SHCA) says aggressive drivers are common within orange zones in the province.
The industry association’s president Shantel Lipp reacted to an incident at a construction site on Monday near Maymont with dread. A driver was caught on video speeding through the pylons, nearly hitting workers before getting into a crash himself.
“Your heart kind of pounds a little bit faster because you just hope that there isn’t a fatality at the end of the situation,” Lipp said.
Lipp says most people realize workers are simply there to do their jobs. But there are still drivers who are impatient “because they want to get to point A to point B as fast as they possibly can.”
