A resolution supporting the goals and ideals of a National Move Over Law Day.
Summary
This is a non-binding Senate resolution that expresses support for establishing a National Move Over Law Day. The resolution aims to raise awareness about move-over laws, which require drivers to change lanes or slow down when approaching stopped emergency vehicles, maintenance workers, or other roadside personnel. By designating a specific day to recognize these laws, the resolution seeks to highlight the importance of protecting workers who operate along highways and reduce accidents involving roadside workers.
As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. It serves as a symbolic statement of congressional support for move-over law awareness and worker safety initiatives. If enacted, it would not create new legal requirements but would encourage public education and recognition of existing move-over laws that many states have already adopted to protect highway workers from traffic-related accidents.
