Alabama's Move Over law applies to more than just law enforcement and ALEA is working to make sure drivers understand that.
The Move Over law has been in effect since 2009, but ALEA officials are working to remind the community it is actually for all emergency responders who are stopped on the roadside with emergency signals on.
This includes law enforcement, emergency responders, highway maintenance personnel and. last but certainly not least, tow operators.“Our tow truck drivers also have families to go home to. They have children, they have parents, they want to go home just like everyone else. It stresses me out daily to watch people just fly by them the way they do.
If a driver can’t move over due to other vehicles, they are required by law to slow down by 15 miles per hour. Failure to do so will lead to a fine.
