Indiana Lawmakers Change "Move Over" Law and Add "Move It" Law for Indiana Motorists
During the last state legislative session, Indiana lawmakers made a significant change to the already existing "Move Over" law effecting Indiana motorists all throughout the state. The "Move Over" law originally just required Indiana motorists to move over to a non-adjacent lane for stopped emergency vehicles, highway maintenance vehicles and wreckers on multi-lane 
highways when the designated vehicles were displaying emergency lights, and if that action could not be completed safely then the motorist was required to slow their vehicle as they passed the emergency lights. Under the recent change, Indiana motorists are required to slow their speed down to at least 10 miles per hour under the posted speed limit if they are unable to move their car to a non-adjacent lane to the emergency lights.
Indiana lawmakers have also enacted a new "Move It" law (currently in effect) which requires a person involved in a crash to move the vehicle out of the traveled portion of the roadway, if possible. This new law has faced some criticism for the reason that some believe it is not wise for those involved in a motor vehicle accident to attempt to move their cars, and may end up endangering others in the process.
