They include law enforcement officers, emergency medical services and fire personnel, tow truck operators and highway workers. Gov. Tim Walz proclaimed the week, which marked its 11th anniversary.

He says drivers should move over one lane when possible or slow down and approach carefully. State law requires motorists to move over for emergency vehicles with flashing lights or, when that’s not possible, reduce their speed. The goal is to give responders room to work and help everyone get home safely.
