Remember to Move Over

New Jersey Office of Emergency Management

 

MOVE OVER!!!
The line of duty death of Trooper Sean Cullen is a tragic reminder of the Move Over Law.
The law requires motor vehicle operators to reduce their speed and change lanes when approaching authorized vehicles displaying emergency lights. Such vehicles include police, fire and medical services vehicles, and also highway maintenance, tow trucks and official motorist aid vehicles displaying amber emergency lights. Where possible, drivers are required to move over to create an empty lane next to the emergency vehicle. When safely changing lanes is not possible, drivers must slow down below the posted speed limit prior to passing emergency vehicles. Drivers should also be prepared to stop, if necessary.

Please MOVE OVER! It's not only the law but it could save a life!
