Construction Site Areas Highway
These are notorious for being a navigational hazard at times. There remote lights for construction always seem to be 7 feet high facing the highway shining at your windshield. With the Volvo 52-inch windshield, largest in the industry, shining at you. Uneven roads, narrow lanes, cones in your lane, drivers wanting to look at construction, dump trucks not yielding to oncoming traffic, and the endless delay in letting traffic thru.
Look for another route, try and find the time there will not be construction (As not to wait for directed traffic).
Drive slow
Look out for other drivers and 4 wheelers especially in the morning when they are trying to get to work.
Be aware of areas of High Schools around lunch time as they seem they are auditioning for the Fast and Furious.

Driver Fatigue
Many understand by now a 15-minute Power Nap is more effective than coffee or other heavily caffeinated and sugar drink. If one does not think there is driver fatigue one can see the wrecks and the deep ruts in the median and grass from drivers gong off the road. Driver may have done this or came close before getting into an accident.
Talking on the cell phone, hands free, or the CB helps too. One other way for keeping yourself alert is to listen to a comedian. Robbin WIlliams is good, but perhaps too good as I find myself pulling over for I was laughing too hard.
Newer semi-trucks have following too close and veering off the lane. Some dash cameras have this option built in.
When parking on the side please get off the road and get onto the on ramp. Thus, you will not be in the way of the other trucks, and no driver in the right lane will feel obliged to get into the left lane for your safety. Stay at least 100 feet away from the intersection from the on ramp to the perpendicular road. Set your alarm.
