I just moved to Utah from Wyoming, where not only do they have this law, but I heard that they recently beefed it up where if any vehicle is pulled over and it's possible, you have to move over.

Though, as far as I know, it is only common courtesy to move over for someone getting onto the highway.

Takes drastic action to protect officiers on side of road. Ive seen films on many officers getting struck by vehicles while on the shoulder of the road.

I did not know about this law. But I always thought it was common curteously to distant yourself from a pedestrian standing at the side of the road wether it is a cop or not.

New Traffic Law 2010 - Ticket cost $754.00
GOOD THING TO KNOW: New Law: If a patrol car is pulled over to the side of the road, you have to change to the next lane (away from the stopped vehicle) or slow down by 20 mph. Every state except Hawaii , Maryland and D.C. has this law. In California , the "Move-over" law became operative on January 1, 2010.
A friend's son got a ticket for this recently. A police car (turned out)it was 2 police cars) was on the side of the road giving a ticket to someone else. He slowed down to pass but did not move into the other lane. The second police car immediately pulled him over and gave him a ticket. He had never heard of the law. It is a fairly new law that states if any emergency vehicle is on the side of the road, if you are able to, you are to move into the far lane.
The cost of the ticket was $754, with 3 points on your license and a mandatory court appearance. Please let everyone you know that drives know about this new law. It is true, see details at the web address above....
