> Now idiots slowing down to 20mph below the speed limit as soon as they see an officer is my biggest peeve about this, especially to those that are already engaged in a traffic stop with light on, like they’re going to whip out and pull you over for doing 10-15 over the limit when you drive by :banghead

OMG yes. It isnt really a hard concept but people want to be ignorant or dont take the time to look into what the law says thats what we get. Traffic jams and accidents becasue people cant just use common sense. And technically the article is not accurate saying we must slow down and move over… the law only says move over and/or obey traffic devices/signals (section 1110/1128 part).

So slowing down well bellow the flow of traffic once again, is actually an offense; 1181.

§ 1144-a. Operation of vehicles when approaching a parked, stopped or  
standing authorized emergency vehicle or hazard vehicle. (a) Every  
operator of a motor vehicle shall exercise due care to avoid colliding  
with an authorized emergency vehicle which is parked, stopped or  
standing on the shoulder or any portion of such highway and such  
authorized emergency vehicle is displaying one or more red or  
combination red and white lights pursuant to the provisions of paragraph  
two of subdivision forty-one of section three hundred seventy-five of  
this chapter. For operators of motor vehicles on parkways or controlled  
access highways, such due care shall include, but not be limited to,  
moving from a lane which contains or is immediately adjacent to the  
shoulder where such authorized emergency vehicle displaying one or more  
red or combination red and white lights pursuant to the provisions of  
paragraph two of subdivision forty-one of section three hundred  
seventy-five of this chapter is parked, stopped or standing to another  
lane, provided that such movement otherwise complies with the  
requirements of this chapter including, but not limited to, the  
provisions of sections eleven hundred ten of this title and eleven  
hundred twenty-eight of this title.  
(b) Every operator of a motor vehicle shall exercise due care to avoid  
colliding with a hazard vehicle which is parked, stopped or standing on

paragraph three of subdivision forty-one of section three hundred  
seventy-five of this chapter. For operators of motor vehicles on  
parkways or controlled access highways, such due care shall include, but  
not be limited to, moving from a lane which contains or is immediately  
adjacent to the shoulder where such hazard vehicle displaying one or  
more amber lights pursuant to the provisions of paragraph three of  
subdivision forty-one of section three hundred seventy-five of this  
chapter is parked, stopped or standing to another lane, provided that
