AAA Reminds Motorists to Slow Down and Move Over
TM
New York’s Move Over Law was enacted to protect the lives of emergency service providers, tow truck operators and maintenance personnel.
As soon as you see lights, vests or reflectors, check traffic around you, SLOW DOWN and safely MOVE OVER. Drivers MUST use due care when approaching
an emergency vehicle or hazard vehicle including police vehicles, fire trucks, ambulances, construction and maintenance vehicles and tow trucks. The Move Over Law applies to both sides of the roadway, not just the shoulder on the right.
AAA Northway recently participated in two important initiatives to help bring awareness to this life-saving law. In April, AAA joined members of the New York State Police, local fire departments, New York State Thruway Authority and other local tow providers at the Thruway rest stop in Pattersonville to distribute flyers highlighting the law to motorists.
In June, AAA, along with dozens of local tow providers, participated in the Spirit Ride. The event is a parade of tow trucks, which travels across the country paying tribute to those that have lost their lives at the roadside assisting others while bringing much needed attention to move- over laws, which are currently enacted in all 50 states.
Please help keep our roadside assistance personnel and others assisting on the roadside safe as you travel America’s roadways:
Slow Down and Move Over.
