She Almost Hit One Of My Workers!!

[@BartlettTFD]

At one time in Nashville, TN, the city required ANY work of this type, to have a police car on site with blue lights flashing simply to protect workers. Seemed like overkill at the time, but was obviously, a good decision.

[@sharongagnist6428]

where I live there is always a cop with lights flashing as they do work.

[@autumn7ful]

Same in Canada and is still a requirement

[@LeviBranch18]

Since this late summer thru now in the town where I live, they have been doing ton of work/updating most of the traffic lights on the main drag that goes thru one end of town to the other end of town. Quite often they do have police officers there keeping an eye out just watching us traffic going thru the intersections while they are working.

[@alsswim]

Lady wouldn’t have seen it anyway, considering she was FaceTimeing while driving

[@matthewjacobs1164]

Glad nobody was hurt! Just a reminder of how dangerous the job actually can be. I've physically been injured twice on the job. First time I was hit by an SUV on an off ramp while doing lighting repairs. Second time I was hit by a semi while in the air changing a green LED.

[@carissagodwin8990]

So glad everyone was safe. Keep up the good work and God Bless you all.

[@NipkowDisk]

I worked for WSDOT for many years, and I often told people that I was three feet from death whenever I was out doing field work. Stay safe out there!!

[@ARoadBuilder]

Playing in traffic for a living, dangerous work!

[@jeeper426]

i really wish people would actually drive when they are on the road, not read a magazine, or scroll facebook, or ya' know, FACETIME WHILE DRIVING..... glad nobody was hurt, but it sucks that things like this are becoming more common on the road, stay safe out there guys

[@MultiTurbospeed]

I personally think distracted driving should be automatic jail time and a hefty fine

[@jamesevans938]

@@MultiTurbospeedI think that it should be jail and license suspension

[@kyleftw1679]

WOW, you and your crew stay safe out there!

[@emmapeel8163]

hubby is a lights guy .. up on his "Cherry Picker" gives me nightmares. people suck at paying attention

I thought the Hoosiers were in Indiana ? Driver Inattentiveness is Responsible for 90% of ALL Traffic Accidents/Fatalities. Sit Down Phones, Brushes, Books & Burgers.

I'm so happy that no one was injured ❤🙏🙏. God bless you and your crew 🙏

Welcome to the wonderful world of Traffic Sig.. Accidents.

DID THEY HAVE A DRIVERS LICENCE AND INSURENCE could they pass a meth test

[@Trafficlightdoctor]

Don’t think they could have passed a math test.

[@tantanthetrafficman5400]

Thats wild, I've had a lady almost hit us and said her brakes didnt work 🤨😒😂 be careful out there.

[@Defianthuman]

Even in my not busy neighborhood any road work has a police car on scene, blue lights on.

[@bluetheta]

Maybe it time to treat distracted driving the same as a DUI with all the associated costs and penalties. My biggest concern is how will self driving technology deal with a "floating" work zone - a zone that is there today and gone tomorrow as oppose to a regular reconstruction type zone that last several months at a time.

[@jetski7611]

Hi there. Have you given any thought to when pouring cement around pullbox to use duct tape?!!. I use duct tape to cover up the gaps between the pullbox and the lid along with covering up the anchor bolt holes and the lift tab holes too. After pouring and dressing up the concrete, I remove the duct tape. Walla, a clean pullbox, no cleaning up of cement.

[@somethingelsehere8089]

Voila!

[@kc0eks]

Glad that went exactly how it did could have been very bad

[@derekjeter7076]

We were putting in traffic lights up at a intersection and a lady in a SUV hit me shattered my arm, broke two ribs , collapsed my lung i thank god im still here

[@ItsTheCostanza]

So much for OSHA picking on you guys. They need to pick on the bad drivers

[@Nicholas-f5]

Both

[@ARoadBuilder]

Working on roads is dangerous. You never know what might happen! Luckily you guys were not in that spot working when it happened. Few years ago we were working on interstate and a plane crashed right in the middle of the traffic control.

[@Bum-gh2zi]

The cops came fast because you as a traffic contractor working called.

[@KevinHarvey-qw5mj]

I have a friend that did this work and i stopped by in my dump truck to get paid for material hauled to his house and a car ran into my dump truck and totaled there car was drunk probably would of killed him if he wasn't but did have great insurance cause paid truck down time while getting repaired

[@maxmaxx1175]

Dippin all your fingers in there with the concrete has got to bee fun for you right now but has left me with numb finger tips after 15yrs of concrete practice, must me the p-gravel the cement co. uses here in San Diego. Makes me wonder why I feel no rush but rather better off being in the County of Storm Water now...lol

[@MultiTurbospeed]

People just don't pay attention i wish they could just shut down the whole road until its done

[@JDSWeather]

I'm just curious as to why that traffic pole is in the sidewalk and not in the grass side of the curb to me a bicylist hits that he's gonna be hurting

[@NinjaTenK]

If she was on the phone like he said hope she got a ticket for reckless driving

[@makayladorning8686]

I am glad all of you are okay.

[@dwanjaiowens4603]

Why you guys won’t set up? A traffic camera that takes a picture and send it to the police just in case it’s a hit-and-run or like a surveillance camera.

[@NithinJune]

that probably requires legislation

[@tritime1236]

theres a 90% chance cars that run into light polls arent going anywhere

[@Culdcepter]

6:07 You just had to mention "vacation time". :D

[@corrinaperez9824]

Crazy Inattentive Drivers Everywhere! Lots of them on Hwy 46 in Boerne Tx. Long as DPS ARENT PRESENT, fools be driving 70-80+ mph, making things Very Unsafe for people Trying to drive the Actual speed limits between 45 & 60 mph. Hardly Any Speed Limit Signs Either ! God Keep y’all Safe ! Too many Lives being Lost Due to DUI’s and People Being in too much of a Rush !

[@kathyhoot7277]

You make that look easy.

[@terrysparks5876]

Where is your IMSA lane closure and flaggers???

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

That's not an appropriate thing to tie up an emergency phone line, such as one of the 911 ones, with. I'm glad everyone in the area was OK though!

[@CadenSeibert1]

The road really needs to be redone

[@janetlewis7145]

Can't fix stupid. Mr Bill

[@DianeMiner]

You guys need to be careful of bad driver's 😮

[@rockyv180]

Doesn't the concrete burn your hands?

[@Nicholas-f5]

Dangerous to work near traffic, can you close the lane?

[@MultiTurbospeed]

I would just close the whole road

[@keithshort688]

Had the fire hydrant been working, it would have been an old faithful geyser at the intersection. 😲

[@slayerjohn447]

You do realize there is a sheer valve right? The geyser thing is only in movies and video games.

[@marvindebot3264]

Since when is someone almost hitting a controller news? That''s a daily occurrence on most sites and if it isn't on yours, you are blessed and need to know it. Please mate, don't do titles like that, it makes people think that it's a rare occurrence whereas in reality controllers are on the edge of death every single day. Your clickbait headline does us a disservice by making it look like that sort of near miss is far rareer than it is, Stop trying to make money at the expense of the industry.

[@BrianDominy]

The title isn't clickbait. Watch the whole series of videos and you'll see he's just showing whatever happens, day by day. If anything, he's bringing awareness to the issue and maybe people will think better when they are on the road.

[@gen157]

I strongly disagree with your statements. TLD is only bringing attention to this situation. Yes it happens all the time, always close to getting hit. I work the interstate changing truck tires and doing other repairs. It's non-stop 70-90mph traffic within feet of me. Hours a day, sometimes all day. That doesn't make any singular incident less important. The more it's documented, the more the public becomes aware.

[@ARoadBuilder]

It's not clickbait bro, the car is literally sitting ontop of a box they just poured concrete in. This video shows people who don't work in the field like us that hey, dangerous stuff like this happens. And it just might make some people see differently when they're in construction zones to not play on their phone or pay more attention.

[@Leotheconstructionguy]

Clickbait how 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Leotheconstructionguy]

Mate my ass 😂😂😂😂

[@samster1oooooo]

Every time our anchor bolts get hit, they always get turned 90 degrees. Never lucky.
