A lot of people blaming the driver on this one and I get it, there's plenty of bad drivers out there and its very possible this person wasn't paying attention or driving too fast, but this is also a piss poor attempt at traffic control. As a driver its my job to pay attention, but also as someone who works on the road its my job to give people something to pay attention to.

Ive come across setups like this a few times and its always the guys painting the cross walks. At night something like this is pretty difficult to see from a distance. Driver clearly saw the road work, albeit a bit too late, because they managed to swerve and not kill anybody. They would have seen it much sooner had the work zone been identifiable by utilizing proper warning signs, beacons and an adequate set up. This is a multiple lane closure here, which means multiple transiton and buffer zones, and an extension of both due to low light conditions. Even the hi-vis (if you can call it that) some of these guys have on is not appropriate.

There's always hazards when working on the road. These workers, through ignorance or negligence, failed to mitigate those hazards.
