This week, the WSP is educating motorists the importance of moving over or slowing down when approaching first responders or stranded motorists stopped along the road.

Troopers will be handing out informational flyers about Wisconsin’s Move Over Law, and using enforcement when necessary. The increased efforts will lead up to National Move Over Day on Oct. 17.

Over the past five years, 128 Wisconsinites were injured roadside while inside or near a stopped vehicle and six were killed. Wisconsin’s Move Over Law was enacted in 2001 to prevent these tragedies. Read more: https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/about-wisdot/newsroom/news-rel/101226-mosd.aspx

STAY SAFE: If you have a student who will be taking the school bus, teach them the SAFE acronym:

S: Stay at least five giant steps away from the curb.
A: Always wait until the bus comes to a stop and the door opens before approaching.
F: Face forward after finding a seat to avoid distracting the bus driver.
E: Exit the bus and look left, right, and left again for vehicles and follow instructions of bus drivers before crossing the road. Make sure the bus driver can see you by staying at least 10 feet in front of the bus. If you drop something near the bus, alert the driver instead of retrieving it.

Don’t forget to arrive at the bus stop at least five minutes early!

DYK? Those little bumps on sidewalk curb ramps are called truncated domes, and they serve to warn those who are visually impaired that they are about to leave the sidewalk and enter a street. The bumps can be felt with a white cane and under your feet.

In the last five years, crews have installed more than 10,000 curb ramps on state highways in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Learn more about our commitment to accessibility: https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/doing-bus/civil-rights/titlevi-ada/ADAcompliance.aspx
