Move Over Slow Down
NOT JUST A COURTESY, IT'S THE LAW
MOVE OVER OR SLOW DOWN TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE!
You can help make Iowa's roads safer.
Iowa's electric cooperatives are committed to the safety of our employees and member-consumers. We fully support Iowa's Move Over or Slow Down law and we encourage motorists to move over or slow down (preferably both) when approaching utility vehicles on the side of the road with flashing lights activated.
​
Please give our employees the room they need to work safely; their jobs are dangerous enough already.
In accordance with Iowa state law, motorists must move over or slow down when approaching ANY vehicle stopped on the side of the road with its flashing lights activated, including passenger cars with hazard lights. Those who fail to obey the law could receive a traffic ticket or even lose their driver's license.
