The expanded Move Over Law (SB147) requires drivers to move over or slow down when approaching any vehicle that is stopped or parked and displaying hazard warning lights, road flares, or other caution signs. The expanded law is in place to protect law enforcement, emergency responders, and any motorist who may encounter a roadside emergency and must stop near travel lanes.

Operating on a roadway is one of the most dangerous things we do as first responders.

**PLEASE SLOW DOWN & MOVE OVER**
