The OPP are urging drivers to move over to keep first responders safe on roads and highways.
OPP Constable Derek Rogers explains a number of near misses so far this year have prompted the enforcement campaign of the Move Over law on roads and highways.
Rogers says the law actually covers all emergency vehicles.
Rogers explains the best way to look at it is when emergency personnel are stopped to deal with an incident, that becomes their workplace.
This week members of the OPP will be conducting an enforcement blitz. Failure to comply with the law can result in a fine up to $2,000 plus three demerit points.
