What are the laws about driving around a barricade?

In Tennessee, it is illegal to drive around a barricade when there is a sign or flagger that indicates the closure of the road or highway. Driving around a barricade is an act of reckless endangerment and may result in a fine and/or jail time. If you are on a public road or highway and come across a barricade, you must obey all signage or other indications that the roadway is closed. This includes signs, cones, and other markers. If the barricade is due to a construction or other type of event, it is important to check with local authorities before driving around the barricade. Such events are generally planned and local authorities should be able to provide you with the necessary information and instructions for avoiding any barricaded areas. Finally, if you see a barricade and do not obey the signage or flagger, you could be subject to fines, jail time, and/or other legal penalties. Tennessee is serious about keeping the safety of its citizens on the roads, and driving around a barricade is a violation of state law.
