Move Over - Slow Down - Save a Life

Law enforcement agencies across the state are focusing strongly this month on enforcing Florida’s “Move Over” law.

They are calling June “Move Over – Slow Down - Save a Life” month.

The Florida “Move Over” law is designed to protect law enforcement officers, emergency workers and tow truck drivers who are stopped along Florida roadways doing their jobs.

Under the law, Drivers must move over when a patrol car, emergency vehicle and/or tow truck is stopped on the side of a road with lights flashing.

If they cannot move over safely, drivers have to slow down to a speed of 20 mph below the posted speed limit.


Violating the Move Over law can result in a fine and points on your driver license record.
