Intent
Intent 1: 
To limit the probability that workers will not be readily seen by motorists, which could lead to the inability of motorists to recognize directions given by workers.
This is to limit the probability that passing vehicles will be negatively affected by the site operations [e.g. run into materials or equipment, or be hit by moving equipment], which could lead to harm to persons.
