7/12/07-Gov. Ted Kulongoski signed a bill into law that requires drivers to remove their vehicles from traffic lanes after minor wrecks or stalls. It takes effect Jan. 1, 2008.
The new law, previously HB2936, mandates that drivers remove their vehicles from traffic lanes, as long as the vehicles are still drivable and no serious injuries were suffered. Vehicles can be moved to parking areas or safe places nearby.
Violators would face up to $180 fines.
