I've discovered that construction zone flagging is a VERY dangerous job.

Coming back from penticton at about 1am last night and there is around a 15-20min delay at one part of the highway where they're doing quite a bit of digging and hauling in and out. It was pretty dead except for the huge trucks going by now and then... Out of nowhere, two construction crew pickup trucks rip out from the digging area and block the road. In the distance I see some car coming quite fast. Guy stops as he gets to the flaggers and I could hear a bunch of yelling going on, and next thing I see is the car just peel out almost running over one of them. I hope they got his plate.
