National Move Over Day: Maryland Alert

Tomorrow is National Move Over Day. Maryland's Move Over laws require drivers approaching from the rear of an emergency vehicle using visual signals while stopped on a highway to, if possible, make a lane change into an available lane not immediately adjacent to the emergency vehicle.

 

This is a Maryland State Police announcement.

Roy Kelley I always worry I am in the wrong lane when they approach, especially with the scary horns. One must move carefully, while in hurry mode!

The other day sirens were going off on the road, but I saw a car stay in the lane and not move over. Seems they had no clue what the right thing to do was...

"National Move Over Day," is a good opportunity to remind folks about pulling over when needed.
