New York: Move-Over Law on Worked When it is Followed
According to state police, 58-year-old Terry Young was hit about 8:49 a.m. on Spring Lake Road by a vehicle driven by Marvin Jay, 83, of Red Creek. Troopers said Jay failed to obey the Move Over Law, which requires drivers to slow down and in some cases change lanes when an emergency vehicle is stopped on a road shoulder with its flashers activated. Jay was ticketed for failure to use due care for a hazardous vehicle stopped, troopers said.
