TxDOT warns drivers to ‘Move Over or Slow Down’

Body
While millions of Texans commute to work on highways every week, they pass inches away from the worksites for thousands of law enforcement personnel, first responders and road maintenance crews. Unfortunately, many of them are killed in crashes every year on the job, which is why TxDOT (Texas Department of Transportation) is calling on Texas drivers to keep roadside workers safe by remembering to ‘Move Over or Slow Down.’ The state’s ‘Move Over or Slow Down’ law requires drivers to move over, putting a lane between them and roadside workers, or reduce their speed to 20 mph below the posted speed limit when passing law enforcement, tow trucks, utility vehicles, emergency responders and TxDOT vehicles stopped with activated overhead lights on the side of the road.
