https://southsidewreckers.com/2018/11/23/staying-safe-georgia-move-over-law/ – In the year 2005, the Move Over Law was passed by voters and lawmakers to prioritize the safety of everyone on the roads. The law was created in response to the rising death toll of police, emergency personnel, and DOT workers.
Georgia State law requires drivers approaching stationary emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights, including towing and recovery vehicles, traveling in the same direction, to vacate the lane closest if safe and possible to do so, or slow below the posted speed limit to a speed reasonable for road and traffic conditions. Also included in the law are utility vehicles and road maintenance vehicles.
