Illinois: Officers Urge Drivers to Remember Scott's Law

It’s a law designed to keep police and other emergency crews safe, but police say many drivers are ignoring it. It was put into place after a driver struck and killed Chicago Fire Lieutenant Scott Gillen back on December 23, 2000. Thus, Scott’s Law was born in 2002. Fourteen years later, police say drivers still fail to pass with caution when they see them on the side of the road. Lines of cars speeding by- just a few feet from your vehicle.
