Drivers, please remember the Move Over Law requiring drivers to move over and change lanes to give safe clearance to first responders. There have been a few cases of NC first responders injured due to people not following this law. More to come on the Move Over Law this week.

[NC_OSFM @NC_OSFM]

Remember, when approaching an emergency vehicle stopped on the road, always move over. Many emergency crews across NC are responding to storm damage. Whether the flashing lights are red, red and blue or yellow, you MUST #SlowDownMoveOver.
