Slow Down. Move Over. Save Lives.

October is Slow Down, Move Over Awareness Month — a time to honor and protect the men and women who work daily on our roadsides. From towing operators and emergency responders to utility crews and roadside service teams, these professionals risk their lives every time they step out to help others along the white line.

Why Moving Over Matters

All 50 states have Move Over Laws requiring drivers to slow down and change lanes when approaching emergency or service vehicles stopped on the roadside. But this law is more than just a rule — it’s an act of respect and compassion. It’s about protecting those who protect us. Every time you move over, you create a safer space for those working in dangerous conditions. One small action behind the wheel can prevent tragedy and save lives.

A Simple Act of Humanity

At Nick’s Towing, we’ve seen firsthand how critical this awareness is. Our team works around the clock to assist drivers in need, often just feet from fast-moving traffic. We ask every driver to remember: slowing down and moving over isn’t just courteous — it’s the right thing to do.

Help Spread the Word

We invite you to watch and share this powerful video that highlights what’s truly at stake for roadside workers across the country.
Together, we can raise awareness, inspire safer driving habits, and save lives — one driver, one moment, and one move at a time.
