In response to rising traffic fatalities, Maryland has implemented measures to enhance road safety. Notably, starting June 1, 2024, fines for speeding in construction zones were increased to $80, with plans for further increases in January 2025. This initiative aims to protect construction workers and reduce work zone accidents.
These incidents and initiatives reflect the ongoing efforts and challenges in improving traffic safety across Maryland.
