“Move-over”?

Like in MD - for the special people only (NOT regular broken-down drivers who are still allowed to be hit, apparently)?

BTW, it’s unenforceable.

I WON a ticket infraction on this new law in MD (I had no idea about it, and it had been in force for 6 mos), because reading the law, and seeing what the policeman did before I passed him, it didn’t hold. (He got to speak first and luckily, he used language that only proved my point that he had even already started moving and turned off his lights - I think so early in the game, officers weren’t clear on what a violation was.)

How can an officer tell or intercept someone who actually violates this law when they are occupied?

They can’t - unless they start making 2 cars stop for every violation, etc. Just like the policeman at construction sites - more waste of money/resources.

I had my rotators and flashers going on my response vehicle in a snowstorm, picking up a sign and was almost killed by a semi in my lane going 75 MPH. That’s why.

I usually move over for anybody now, whether it’s a breakdown or a rescue vehicle.
