KY Transportation Cabinet Right Of Way Clean Up Following Storms

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet wants to let motorists know that crews will be out over the days and weeks to come to remove trees from right-of-ways along roadways following the wind storm. “This is definitely a unique situation.

EPD Reminds Motorists About Slow Down, Move Over Law

The Elizabethtown Police Department wants to remind motorists about Kentucky’s Slow Down, Move Over law. “Most people are aware Kentucky law requires that they give way to any emergency vehicle being operated in an emergency response mode. Some however, are not aware that, when possible, they also have a statutory obligation to switch to a lane not adjacent to a stopped emergency safety or service vehicle with activated flashing lights. When switching lanes isn’t possible, motorists at a  minimum must slow down when passing. Tragedies happen in a split second.The last thing we want is to have to tell someone’s family member that their loved one won’t be coming home because of a completely avoidable fatal collision. Please remember, slow down and move over,” said spokesperson Chris Denham. Motorists should also stop clear of intersections when an emergency vehicle is approaching and stay there until the vehicle has passed.
