Simmer Down Now—When to Move Over and Slow Down
If you are approaching a stationary emergency vehicle, tow truck, or Department of Transportation vehicle that is flashing warning lights and is pulled over on a freeway or highway shoulder, slow down and move over or change lanes so that you are not endangering the safety of any emergency personnel who may be at work near the vehicle. That paramedic on the side of the road may be good at what he does, but he might have a difficult time sewing back on his own limbs, so give him some room, will ya?
