Do you have to yield to vehicles with Amber lights?

In My Humble Opinion
1

The final line of this article is a lie - I’ve been through several towns and cities this week and have yet to see a single sign that warns anyone of the new law, nor has it been mentioned frequently enough on the news to catch my attention despite watching nearly ever day. (I only heard about it from someone who had seen a sign in another part of the state) Nor do I understand how a tow truck is an emergency vehicle whose presence is crucial enough at an accident scene to disrupt traffic, but I guess that’s wandering off towards a rant…

Anyway, my questions for you folks are these:
Are you required to pull over for “emergency” vehicles with amber lights too? Just as you’re supposed to for police, fire trucks, and ambulances.

If so, how long as it been a law in your state? The article says 45 states have move over laws, but fails to say if they’re inclusive of amber lights too, or just the standard red and blue lights.

And if it’s a newish law, was more effort made to inform drivers than NH has made thus far?

Amber just means caution. You don’t have to yield, it’s just a warning to be careful going around them. At least that’s what 's meant in every state I’ve ever lived in. I’ve never heard of having to yield to tow trucks.

Make sure you’re properly understanding “Move Over” laws and not confusing them with “Yield to Emergency Vehicles”.

Move Over laws have become fairly universal (IIRC adopted in 44 states), but yield laws vary from state to state.

I saw one of those signs in Northwood or Epsom as I was passing through. The wording of the sign had me really confused until I got home and looked up the details. You don’t have to pull over and stop when you see a moving vehicle with amber lights. All it means is that when you see a vehicle with amber lights stopped at an accident scene you have to slow down and give them a wide berth as you pass. Common sense, really, I just wish the signs were better worded.

Move over =/= Pull Over
