Susquehanna Township, PA — November 14, 2025 — As part of its ongoing commitment to roadway safety, the Susquehanna Township Police Department is continuing its participation in regional joint enforcement activities targeting seat belt compliance and impaired driving. Today, officers conducted a dedicated “Move Over” enforcement detail at various locations throughout the township, focusing on violations of Pennsylvania’s “Move Over” vehicle code statute.

This initiative reflects a coordinated, multi-agency effort to reduce traffic-related injuries and fatalities through high-visibility patrols and proactive community education. By working closely with local, county, and state partners, the department continues to emphasize the importance of safe driving practices on township roadways.

The department also extends a sincere thank you to River Drive Service Center for their support and assistance during today’s detail. Their participation helps highlight the significant risks faced by their employees — and all roadside workers. The department hopes that this partnership brings awareness to the hazards all emergency responders confront while performing critical services along busy roadways.

Enhanced enforcement activities will continue throughout the current campaign period, with officers focusing on:

• Seat belt violations
• Impaired driving
• Move Over law compliance
• Hazardous driving behaviors identified through patrol and crash data

Drivers are reminded that Pennsylvania’s Move Over Law requires motorists to change lanes or significantly reduce speed when approaching an emergency response area, disabled vehicle, or maintenance operation with activated or flashing lights.

The Susquehanna Township Police Department encourages all motorists to stay alert, buckle up, drive sober, and move over when approaching stopped vehicles on the roadway.
