Safety is a veryparamount aspect on the roads. The Florida Department of Transportation issueda warning to ensure that truck drivers drive on the right lanes. Most reportedaccidents tend to occur as a result of carelessly switching lanes. Some actionshad to be sanctioned to enhance safety on the roads. For this case, truck driverswould be slapped with a fine if caught driving in the wrong lanes.

Truck lane regulations on the I-95 and I-75 have been in place for quite some years. The restrictions demand that drivers stick to the right lane at some sections of the interstate roads. The Florida Department of Transportation and Florida Highway Patrol declared that they would step up in the enforcement of the same. The authorities issued a warning that those who aren’t compliant would pay a $120 fine. As a matter of fact, the studies show that the cause for the most accidents on highways is weaving between lanes.

Currently, in Florida, the rules dictate that trucks are restricted from accessing the left lanes and the travel lanes. Only recreational vehicles and tour buses are exempted since they are not considered commercial. Failure to comply would warrant a $120 fine for using the wrong lanes. Obviously, the truck drivers will be required to be aware of the ‘No Trucks Left Lane’ sign and stick on the right to avoid the fines.

Despite being the drivers' responsibility to keep safe on the roads, the authorities have a part to play too. The authorities in Florida have, therefore, declared war against the law offenders to reduce avoidable accidents. By minimizing lane switching and weaving, such accidents will be avoided. And those who go against the laws will get a $120 fine for using the wrong lanes.
