MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — A new state law could make Wisconsin roads a little safer.
Governor Tony Evers signs a bill that expands Wisconsin’s “Move Over” law to require drivers move over or slow down when approaching disabled vehicles on the side of the road, if flashing its warning or hazard lights, if emergency flares have been placed near the vehicle, or if one or more visible persons are working on or “attending to” a vehicle on the roadside.
It also makes it a requirement to slow down or change lanes when disabled vehicles are “parked or standing on or within 12 feet of a roadway.”
