Move to the Right for Sirens & Lights

Please remember to move to the right for sirens and lights. It is very important for both our safety, your safety, and the safety of our patients and citizens or guest we are serving. When emergency vehicles have to go around you or slow down because you are not moving over, it prolongs our response time to a real emergency.
