Over the next few months, the Lawrence Twp. Police Dept. will be participating in a national campaign to educate motorists in our community about New Jerseys’ “Move Over” law. The purpose of the “Move Over” law is to protect the safety of first responders, emergency personnel, and other workers who are stopped on the side of the road with their emergency lights activated. The law requires drivers approaching authorized emergency vehicles with flashing or alternating red or blue lights to proceed with caution and make a lane change not adjacent to the emergency vehicle if traffic conditions allow. 🚔 This law also applies to tow/service vehicles.

In short, if you approach an emergency or “service” vehicle on the side of the road, slow down, proceed with caution and if possible, make a lane change and *move over.* You can help our safety. If YOU make the move, others will follow. 🙂 Safe motoring Lawrence Twp.!
