Got an extra $300 to $500 you want to give away? You will if you are caught breaking South Carolina's "Move Over" law. SCDOT SHEP Incident Responder Robbie Moore explains why the law is important to him. Lauren Rountree reporting. (Video by Rob Thompson/SCDOT)

I am a little confused by the authorized to respond to a traffic incident. As well as a couple of other statements made in the video. But, otherwise another positive PSA for every profession working in these highly dangerous situations. Judging by what I have witnessed in both my private vehicle and the Tow Truck distracted & impaired driving is on the increased. it's difficult to recognize the intoxicated from the texting and the drowsy. They all look the same now and are involved in accidents at about the same rate from what I can tell. However, I have no data to back that up.

I suppose I would get in trouble if I posted video of distracted drivers? It is so blatant! Just makes me want to scream.

IE repo trucks don't count, guy with a tow dolly / car trailer doesn't count for move over law.

Looks like the light board blocks his light bar pretty good... bad design.

After July 1 in Iowa any vehicle with flashers on is subject to the move over law.
