What are the penalties in Georgia for violating an out-of-service order?
Under Georgia law, a first violation of an out-of-service order causes a disqualification from driving a commercial vehicle of not less than 90 days and not more than one year. A second violation causes a disqualification of one to five years. And a third or subsequent violation causes a disqualification from driving a commercial vehicle of three to five years.What is Georgia’s “move over law”?:In 2003 the Georgia legislature passed what has become known as the “move over law.” It requires that when you see an emergency vehicle on the side of the roadway with flashing blue, red or amber lights you must either move over to a lane not adjacent to the emergency vehicle or slow down below the speed limit and be prepared to stop. This second part is very vague and has caused many drivers to earn a $500.00 ticket.
