**Reminder**
Effective September 1, 2023, Alberta has implemented changes to keep those working on the highways and yourself safe.
The changes include the requirement that when an emergency, tow truck, or road crew vehicle (including snowplows) is stopped with its flashing lights operating, motorists are required to:
-Slow down to 60 km/h or the posted speed limit, whichever is lower, in all lanes travelling in the same direction on multi-lane highways.
-Slow down to 60 km/h or the posted speed limit, whichever is lower, when travelling in either direction on single-lane highways.
Thank you for following these changes in order to help keep all first responders safe while out on the roads during emergencies!
