Governor Wolf signed Act 105 on October 29, 2020, creating escalating fines for Move Over violations — $500 for a first offense, $1,000 for a second, $2,000 for a third with a 90-day license suspension — and imposing fines up to $10,000 for violations that injure or kill an emergency responder or person near a disabled vehicle, effective April 27, 2021, according to PennDOT. The law covers tow trucks, maintenance vehicles, and other roadside service providers.
Operator takeaway
Pennsylvania's escalating penalty structure — up to $10,000 and license suspension — is the model to bring to your state legislature if your Move Over law carries only a flat fine.
