(Harrisburg, Pa.) Pennsylvania State Police said they are stepping up their efforts to enforce Pennsylvania’s year old Move Over Law
The law requires drivers to move over or slow down when they see an emergency vehicle or a disabled one. This includes moving over to a lane farther away when an emergency response driver is approaching. If this is not a possible, the law states that drivers should slow to no more than 20 mph below the posted speed limit. Officers said that many drivers are ignoring this rule.
Troopers will be adopting a “zero tolerance” enforcement approach.
Drivers who violate the law could face a fine of $500 on their first offense and up to $2,000 on their third. Drivers who violate the law three times could also face a license suspension.
