Delaware 'Move Over' Law Aims to Protect Emergency Personnel and Road Crews

Surrounded at Delaware City Fire Company by first responders and the family of a young firefighter who was struck while giving aid at a crash in New Castle, Delaware, Governor Jack Markell signed Senate Bill 205 into law. The law requires motorists to move — if possible — at least one lane away from firefighters, law enforcement, ambulances, tow trucks and transportation workers. If motorists cannot move one lane away, they should slow down and proceed with caution.
