Today is National Slow Down Move Over Day.
CAA Atlantic, along with RCMP are teaming up to tell drivers to watch out for emergency vehicles and tow trucks on the side of the road.
Every province now has legislation that mandates drivers to slow down and move over.
Corporal Chris Marshall explains the law in Nova Scotia.
“You have to slow down to at least 60 kilometres per hour. If it’s a two-lane highway, you also have to move over if the lane furthest from the side of the road is available to you.”
Cpl. Marshall says this ensures emergency workers will be able to go home to their families at the end of the day.

In the year since 22 people were killed during Canada’s deadliest mass shooting, Nova Scotia has had a turnabout from never using the national public-alerting system to now circulating urgent police warnings about “civil emergencies” more than all other Canadian jurisdictions combined.
Statistics released to The Globe and Mail show that officials in Nova Scotia have issued direct-to-cellphone alerts for nine police-related civil emergencies since late April, 2020, while seven other events elsewhere in Canada triggered such warnings.
