π¨ SLOW DOWN. MOVE OVER. STOP! π¨
A recent RCMP enforcement initiative in Nova Scotia found that while more drivers are moving over for emergency and roadside vehicles, many are forgetting the second important part:
You MUST slow down and stop.
π Police
π Paramedics
π Firefighters
You MUST slow down.
π» Tow truck operators
π· Roadside workers
These people are often working only a few feet away from moving traffic.
When you see flashing lights behind or ahead:
π Slow down.
π Move over when itβs safe.
π Give roadside workers the space they need.
Moving over creates distance. Slowing down gives you time to react.
This is something we emphasize with our students at DriveXpert Driving School because safe driving isn't just about passing your road test β it's about understanding your responsibility every time you get behind the wheel.
Slow down. Move over. Do both.
π¦ Drive Safe. Drive Smart. DriveXpert.
