§ 2903.081.

(A) As used in this section: (1) “Construction zone” has the same meaning as in section 5501.27 of the Revised Code . (2) “Reckless operation offense” and “speeding offense” have the same meanings as in section 2903.06 of the Revised Code . (B) The director of transportation, board of county commissioners, or board of township

trustees shall cause signs to be erected in construction zones notifying motorists

of the prohibitions set forth in sections 2903.06 and 2903.08 of the Revised Code regarding the death of or injury to any person in the construction zone as a proximate

result of a reckless operation offense or speeding offense in the construction zone.  The prohibitions set forth in divisions (A)(2)(b) and (3)(b) of section 2903.06 and divisions (A)(2)(a) and (3) of section 2903.08 of the Revised Code apply to persons who commit a reckless operation offense or speeding offense in a

particular construction zone only when signs of that nature are erected in that construction

zone in accordance with the guidelines and design specifications established by the

director under section 5501.27 of the Revised Code .  The failure to erect signs of that nature in a particular construction zone in accordance

with those guidelines and design specifications does not limit or affect the application

of division (A)(1) , (A)(2)(a) , (A)(3)(a) , or (A)(4) of section 2903.06 or division (A)(1) or (2)(b) of section 2903.08 of the Revised Code in that construction zone or the prosecution of any person who violates either of

those divisions in that construction zone.
