On a recent FL trip I saw the above signs. I do give emergency vehicles extra space but wondered exactly what the law was. I found:
“The Move Over Law requires drivers to reduce speed and vacate the lane closest to emergency vehicles – including recovery vehicles, tow trucks and other service vehicles – both for the safety of those providing assistance and those being helped. If the lane cannot be vacated the driver must slow down.” Currently 40 states have some version of this law.
Orlando has invitation signs! “Run a red light $183” and Littering $250”. Previously it would not have occurred to me to run a red light :-)
