Every year, drivers are injuring and killing hundreds of emergency responders as they work to save lives at the scene of traffic incidents.
National Move Over Day is every third Saturday of October, and is a day to raise awareness of our nation's life-saving Move Over Laws.
Oregon's Move Over Law (ORS 811.147) requires drivers to move over to a non-adjacent lane (or slow down) when approaching the rear of police, fire, and ambulance vehicles, as well as any motor vehicle that is stopped and is displaying required warning lights or hazard lights, or a person is indicating distress by using emergency flares or posting emergency signs.
