Road markers play a crucial role in ensuring driver safety, a fact well known to anyone behind the wheel. Ignoring these markers can be extremely dangerous and potentially fatal.

This new blue line is a tribute to the police officers in Maryland, with their names being commemorated on the roads. As this tribute aligns with the police station, it also acts as an additional safety measure.
