IT'S THE LAW

SLOW DOWN, MOVE OVER, AND SAVE LIVES

IT'S THE LAW

Pennsylvania’s Slow Down and Move Over law is designed to protect emergency responders, tow truck operators, and road crews working along the roadside. This law is critical to ensure that every first responder and roadside worker goes home safe.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

If you see flashing lights, flares, or warning signs, move over to a lane away from the emergency response area.
If moving over isn’t possible, slow down to at least 20 mph below the posted speed limit.

WHO IT PROTECTS

Police, Firefighters, EMTs, Tow Truck Operators, Utility Workers, and Road Crews

PENALTIES FOR VIOLATING THE LAW

First offense: Up to $500 fine
Repeat offenses: Higher fines and possible license suspension
If someone is injured or killed: Severe fines and potential imprisonment

PAY ATTENTION TO THESE SIGNS

These signs alert you that there are first responders ahead. When you see them, slow down and move over if possible. It may save a life!
