*if a police/emergency vehicle is coming up the interstate behind you with it\'s lights on, you must pull over.
*bottled water and flavored waters will become depositable containers. i.e. going to cost you $0.05 more, but you can deposit them along with soda and beer cans

In mass they passed a law in the spring that mandated the you have to change lanes if there is an emergency vehical, or disabled vehical off the road. It was flashed on all the traffic alerts signs for about a week then went away.

I have not seen anybody follow this law.

If a cops on my tail I\'m def gonna let him pass me. That ****\'s annoying enough even if you\'re sober as a judge and rollin\' clean like Trey 2009. If he\'s comin at me flashin lights I\'m gonna assume he\'s chasing down someone or something ahead of me and pull aside or switch lanes.

Only when the siren is flashed and its obvious I\'m the one he\'s after am I gonna be stopping my car.

I do stop and pull over my car for ambulances though. Common courtesy.

the pulling over thing is usually followed by people as a common courtesy. apparently it\'s law in 48 states and ct is just making it official.
