Hawaii: More Than 60 Citations Given for Violating "Move Over Law"

More than 60 citations were issued to motorists recently as they violated the "Move Over Law," in which motorists approaching emergency vehicles responding to an emergency must change lanes to make room for the first responders, Maui Police said in a news release Thursday.

The purpose of the law is to keep emergency workers safe as they perform their jobs on roads and highways, said Sgt. Nick Krau, supervisor of the DUI Task Force Unit at the Maui Police Department.
