If you see an emergency, law enforcement, or maintenance vehicle on the side of the road with its emergency lights flashing, you are required to move out of the lane closest to the vehicle if possible. If a safe lane change is not possible, or you are traveling on a two lane roadway, you are required to slow your vehicle, maintaining a safe speed for traffic conditions, and drive at a reduced speed until completely past the vehicle.
What happens if you don't move over? If you get a ticket, you will be assessed three demerit points on your license and a $249 fine. In addition, your driver’s license will be suspended if you are involved in a crash, and you may serve up to seven years in prison if you hurt or kill someone.
