SLOW DOWN MOVE OVER

SLOW DOWN MOVE OVER is now a universal statement in all Provinces and States in North America

It represents the message that every member of the motoring public is required to SLOW DOWN & MOVE OVER whenever approaching an emergency vehicle stopped roadside and includes POLICE, FIRE, AMBULANCE and TOW TRUCKS

Please do you part to keep First Responders safe in the performance of their duties in serving the public
Annually our members participate in international event days with our First Responder partners from POLICE, FIRE and AMBULANCE for SLOW DAY MOVE OVER and to bring awareness to the public to comply with the laws in efforts to reduce injury and death in the performance of our duties

A little-known fact about the risks our members face every day in their dedication to serve law enforcement and the motoring public on our roadways is that a towing service team member is killed in the line of service on average every six days in North America.

These needless deaths result from the failure of drivers to comply with SLOW DOWN MOVE OVER laws that now exist in every Province and every State.
