I'm excited that Montana Bar Fairies will be part of Drive Safe Missoula and the DUI Task Force.

Missoulians can now look out for gift cards from the Montana Bar Fairies, thanking them for not driving drunk.

The New Move Over Montana Law.

MONTANA'S NEW ENHANCED MOVE OVER LAW:
This year, legislators passed a law amending and improving Montana’s Move Over Law.

The enhanced move over law goes into affect
OCTOBER 1, 2023

Changes to the law include:

- Specific speed rules and verbiage pertaining to slowing down upon approach and passing of an authorized vehicle.

- The addition of Utility workers under the protection of the Move Over Law.

These changes create a clearer definition of a driver’s responsibility as well as include personnel from the Utility profession who routinely work along Montana’s roadways and require the same safety and room to work as other roadside professions.

Fines and penalties remain the same as does the charge of Reckless Endangerment to personnel in the event a driver fails to obey the law.

This poem is called Drive Safe Missoula
Because Sober driving's the rule, please don't take a chance,
Leave the booze behind, or have a plan in advance.
Buckle up tight, it's a very small deed,
Seat belts save lives, it's exactly what we need!
Watch for pedestrians, they're crossing with care,
Give them the right of way, and show them you’re aware!
With Eyes on the road, attention's a must,
No texting No distractions, in safety we trust!
Brought to you by the traffic safety crew,
At Drive Safe Missoula, cause we all need you.
