61 Drivers Nabbed In “Move Over” Blitz

Thunder Bay Police say they’ve laid 61 charges as part of their day-long enforcement blitz, targeting violators of Ontario’s Move Over laws.

Officers focused on drivers failing to slow down and proceed with caution for emergency vehicles and tow trucks on Tuesday. Police say those tickets were for failing to move over, but also for speeding, invalid insurance, and other provincial offenses. Fourteen of those were for failing to move over.

Police remind you that when you approach an emergency vehicle or tow truck with emergency lights activated, slow down and proceed with caution.

If there are two lanes of traffic, slow down, proceed with caution and move to the outside lane if the movement can be made in safety.
