Alabama Move over law now to include tow trucks

Wreckers added to move over law

Law enforcement officials will begin issuing warnings for Alabama's Move Over law this week.
The law requires drivers to move over a lane when emergency responders, law enforcement officials or wreckers are working on the side of the road. The law has been in effect for several years, but changes were made recently, including adding wreckers to the law and specifying a minimum speed limit for passing vehicles.
"The new Move Over law includes wreckers along with other emergency responders for which motorists need to move over," said Dorris Teague, spokeswoman for the Alabama Department of Public Safety.
Teague said the new specifications were added to better protect emergency responders and to clear up confusion about the existing law.
