When approaching a stopped emergency vehicle or road assistance vehicle, which of the following should you NOT do?

Correct answer

  • Move at least one lane away from the vehicle.
  • Pull over and offer help to the vehicle.
  • Proceed with caution.

Explanation

According to Nebraska's Move Over law, a driver in a vehicle on a multilane controlled-access highway approaching a stopped emergency or road assistance vehicle with flashing lights must proceed with caution and move at least one travel lane away from the stopped vehicle if possible. If moving into another lane is not possible, the driver must slow down and maintain a safe speed past the stopped vehicle. The driver must not stop and offer help to the emergency vehicle unless requested by emergency personnel. (Note: All states now have their own Move Over laws, but some require drivers to do different things. When traveling out of state, always check the local traffic laws.)
