       that on Jan. 1
       expansions  were
       added to Florida’s
       Move Over Law?
          You might be
       wondering what the
       Move Over Law
       is. Well in Florida
       drivers are required
       to move over a
       lane for stopped
       law enforcement,
       emergency, sanitation, utility service vehicles, tow trucks
       or wreckers, maintenance, or construction vehicles with
       displaying warning lights.
          However, there are times when that isn’t always possible,
       as a vehicle could be in the lane next to you and it is unsafe
       to move over, or you could be on a two-lane road. In those
       scenarios you should slow to a speed that is 20 mph less than
       the posted speed limit, or slow down to 5 mph when the posted
       speed limit is 20 mph or less.
          The expansion of the Move Over Law that took effect on Jan.
       1, now includes any disabled vehicles on the side of the road, to
       help protect motorists that are stopped on the side of the road.
          In 2022, there were 170 crashes and more than 14,000
       citations issued for motorists failing to move over in Florida.
          For more information on how you can protect yourself
       and others on the road, visit www.flhsmv.gov/safety-center/.
