MOVE OVER OR SLOW DOWN ENFORCEMENT: Wisconsin State Patrol troopers increased their enforcement efforts this week to help educate motorists about Wisconsin’s Move Over Law.

Motorists are required to move over to the farthest lane or slow down when there is an emergency or roadside service vehicle stopped on the side of a roadway. The law recently expanded to include stranded motorists.

Spot a car on the roadside with flashing lights? ⚠️ Slow Down and Move Over! It's not just for emergency vehicles.

*Check your state's specific Move Over laws.

Metric highways signs? That's right, in the mid-1970’s the metric system was promoted across the country as the preferred system of weights and measures. In response, WisDOT placed destination-distance signs with metric units along several interstates. Locations included I-94 westbound in Milwaukee and I-90/94 eastbound in Tomah.

The metric system was never adopted in the U.S. By the early 1990’s the metric signs were replaced with signs using today’s imperial system.

Do you think the U.S. should have used the metric system?

LABOR DAY TRAVEL: As the Labor Day weekend approaches, we’re reminding travelers that a safe trip starts with smart choices behind the wheel.

According to AAA, peak travel times are expected from 2-7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 3, 12-8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 4, and 2-5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 7. Stay ahead of those busier times and “know before you go” at 511wi.gov to access traffic cameras, incidents, travel times, and more.

Please leave your phone alone, follow speed limits and stay patient on the roads. Most road construction will pause over the weekend to open as many lanes as possible. Some projects may still impact travel – check out our statewide list here: https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/about-wisdot/newsroom/news-rel/090226-laborday.aspx

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE: As school starts in most Wisconsin districts this week, you’ll start to see more school buses on the roads again. Here’s a reminder of what the different colored lights on a school bus indicate and what you should do if they’re flashing:

🟠Amber Warning Lights: The school bus is about to stop. Slow down and prepare to stop.

🔴Red Warning Lights: Stop at least 20 feet from the bus whether approaching from either direction. The only exception is if you are traveling on the other side of a divided road that’s separated by a median or other physical barrier.
