Avoid a $500 Fine: Move Over Law in Georgia for Central GA Drivers

Under O.C.G.A. § 40-6-16, the Spencer Pass Law, drivers approaching a stopped authorized vehicle with flashing lights or cones must change lanes away from it if that move is safe. If a lane change isn’t possible, drivers must slow below the posted speed limit and be ready to stop. This applies to emergency vehicles, tow trucks, DOT and utility crews, and sanitation vehicles. Ignoring it risks fines up to $500, license points, and real legal exposure.
