Georgetown fire crews responded to a vehicle crash on IH-35 at approximately 9:47pm Tuesday night. Engine two was positioned to block the scene while crews provided care. Shortly thereafter E2 was struck by a pickup truck. Due to the placement of E2, no emergency providers or patients were injured. Georgetown Fire would like to use this incident as a reminder of the “Move Over” law. Implemented in 2003, the “Move Over” law requires that drivers move over or slow down when passing emergency vehicles- including police, EMS, fire, TxDOT, or tow trucks that are stopped on the road with emergency lights on.
