Slow Down In Work Zones Decal

SLOW DOWN IN WORK ZONES. SOMEONE'S WAITING AT HOME.

A retro safety-poster vinyl decal for construction companies, paving crews, traffic control, municipalities, utility fleets, and any roadside contractor who wants a real message on the back of every truck. Not a corporate placard. Not another sticker that says "Safety First" for the hundredth time. This one tells drivers what to do (slow down) and why (someone is waiting at home).

Made in Port Colborne, Ontario. Ships worldwide.

Why this design

"Slow Down" is the command. "Someone's Waiting At Home" is the reason. The composition shows a road-crew worker walking off shift toward a small house with one lit window and a family silhouette in the doorway. The visual lands in under two seconds, long before a driver has time to ignore another generic safety placard. The kicker line at the bottom, Road Crews Are People, Not Obstacles, reframes how drivers see your crew on the shoulder.

Pair this with

Pair the Slow Down In Work Zones flagship with the Cones Mean People decal for a two-message fleet setup. This one lands the family hook. Cones Mean People lands the reframe. Many fleet buyers run both on different vehicle classes in the same crew. Both products live in the Work Zone Safety Decals collection.

Frequently asked questions

Can I order this in bulk for a fleet?
Yes. For 25 units or more in one size, send us a quick note and we will return a single proof for the whole order and a bulk quote. We have shipped fleet runs from 25 up to several hundred units.

Can the design be customized with our company name or unit numbers?
Yes. We can drop a small footer line under the main artwork with your company name, contract number, or unit ID. Note this on your order or email before checkout.

Is the reflective vinyl version compliance-grade?
Reflective vinyl supports night-time visibility. Specific compliance grades (ASTM Type III, IV, or higher, MUTCD, MTO, or another jurisdiction's spec) vary by application. If you need a specific compliance grade for shadow-vehicle or lane-closure signage, contact us before ordering so we can confirm the right material.

Will it survive a Canadian winter?
Yes. Cast vinyl plus laminate, applied properly, handles a full Canadian winter cycle. We have shipped fleet decals to crews in Northern Ontario, the Prairies, and the Maritimes. Outdoor life expectancy on a vertical surface is 5 to 7 years.

How fast does it ship?
Stocked sizes dispatch in 24 to 48 hours. Fleet orders of 25 or more take an additional 1 to 2 business days for prep. We ship worldwide.
