HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) -
Huntsville police kicked off their "Move Over" Campaign Monday.
While Alabama's "Move Over" Law was passed in 2009, law enforcement officials are pushing the awareness campaign hoping to re-educate drivers about the law.
Alabama's "Move Over" law requires motorists to move over and slow down when they encounter emergency responders stopped along the roadside with emergency signals activated. Emergency responders include troopers, deputies, officers, ambulances, fire trucks and tow trucks drivers.
Authorities said if you're on a two lane road, move over as far as possible. If it's a four lane road, move over one lane. If it's not safe to move over, then the driver must slow down to a speed that's 15 miles less than the posted speed limit or go 10 miles per hour if the speed limit is 20 mph.
