Slow down move over Texas

I push the move over law here in Florida

When announcing a vehicle stopped on the side of the road, add a reminder to move over to allow the vehicle plenty of room. As an emergency services provider, there are plenty of times when vehicles do not move over a lane to allow us to work safely. 43 states have a move over law, which includes fire, police, EMS, tow trucks and service vehicles. Drivers should move over for all vehicles on the shoulder of the road. More and more people are being killed while stopped on the shoulder. Whether it's putting gas in or fixing a flat, nobody should be put in harms way by a vehicle whizzing by at 70 mph.

There should be an option to report emergency vehicles stopped on the roads (not just police) sometimes there isn't an accident but medic reporting to a house on a main, busy road.

Alert drivers of stopped emergency vehicles and police in one lane or on the shoulder of the road so drivers can move over one lane.

When Waze reports a police car ahead in the breakdown lane, could they also remind drivers about the "Move Over" law to move over one lane or slow down 20 mph below the stated speed limit on the highway. This law applies to all emergency vehicles and tow trucks with flashing lights. This would help alleviate costly traffic tickets and increase safety on the highways.

WAZE to add a notice to alert motorists to watch out for stopped emergency vehicles! YOU can make a difference, you can help save a life. Lets do this in honor and memory of Jason Schultz!

EVERY state in the US has a law that requires motorists to act accordingly when approaching a stopped evergency vehicle on the highway to reduce the risk of hitting the stop vehicle or personnel working outside of their vehicle. The laws are commonly referred to “Slow Down Move Over” laws. Although there is an option in Waze to report police or a stopped vehicle in general, adding an option for a stopped emergency vehicle with a voice alert of “Watch out, emergency vehicle stopped ahead, slow down or move over 1 lane when approaching and passing” will further help educate drivers about the existence of the law and how to abide by it. The alert for police reports is “Police reported ahead” or for a general stopped vehicle “watch out vehicle stopped ahead”. Why not utilize the existing technology and features of Waze to spread the awareness of a commonly misunderstood law that results in many first responders and highway workers being struck, injured or killed every year. It can be easily implemented and will result in saving countless lives while providing an excellent learning opportunity for motorists.

This would be most useful if you witnessed the accident or came upon it fresh after it happened or even an accident in the middle of the night on a dark road.

Imagine if Police, Firemen, EMTs etc. Could register (with proof) through Waze App or Waze.com. Then say there is a car accident, a Wazer could report through the "Hazard" menu: "Car Accident", then rate the severity of accident such as: "Fender Bender", "Collision", "Wreck" and (if severe enough) "Emergency"(or similar terms)(also an option to add notes if needed). Then a special alert will go out to the Wazers that registered (sort of like an Ad but with maybe a vibrations and alert tones) to notify them that there is a situaton that may require their services until the authorities arrive. It would also give them information such as: distance to incident, time till arrival, and the option to drive there. This could be used so off duty medical personnel who just happen to be passing by could offer their expertise. This could save many lives if implemented

With an addition of a speed warning. Australia requires a 40kph limit when passing.
