INDIANAPOLIS A program to help slow drivers down and save lives is a success. INDOT is expanding its Safe Zone pilot program, which places speed cameras in active construction sites.

When WRTV asked Dodson about I-69, she couldn't help but think about her teenage driver at home.
"It's very narrow, said Dodson. And I always wonder, hey, what happens if someone does have an accident?"
