Louisiana drivers have an important roadside safety law to know. 🚘

Effective August 1, 2026, Louisiana’s Move Over law was expanded to address more than emergency vehicles. When approaching a disabled, immobilized or nonoperational vehicle displaying hazard lights, flashing lights or other emergency warning devices, drivers on a roadway with two or more lanes traveling in the same direction should move into a lane away from the stopped vehicle when it is safe to do so.

If changing lanes is not possible or safe, or if you are traveling on a two-lane road, slow down to a reasonably safe speed and maintain a safe speed for the conditions.

And when an emergency vehicle approaches with its lights or siren activated, drivers should yield, move as close as possible to the right-hand edge or curb and stop until it passes.

Labor Day weekend is right around the corner and should end with everyone getting home safely. Before the celebration begins, choose a sober driver, arrange a rideshare or plan to stay where you are.

Alcohol and drugs can affect judgment, coordination and reaction time. If you feel different, you drive different. Never let a friend drive impaired.

Please celebrate responsibly and help keep our roads safe.

Heavy summer rain can make a familiar road dangerous in minutes.🌧️
Never drive around a barricade or enter a flooded roadway. Water can hide washed-out pavement, debris and strong currents.
When the road ahead is covered, turn around and choose another route. No appointment, errand or shortcut is worth the risk.

Help keep yourself, your passengers and first responders safe.

Frequently Asked Question:
What happens if the driver who caused your accident does not have insurance or does not have enough coverage?

Depending on your auto insurance policy, uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may help cover medical expenses, lost income and other damages after a crash. These claims can be complicated, so do not assume you are out of options.

If you were injured by an uninsured driver in Louisiana, Spurgeon Law Firm can review your case and help you understand the coverage that may be available.

Motorcycles are smaller and can be easy to miss, especially at intersections or during lane changes.

Drivers should check mirrors and blind spots twice, allow motorcycles the full width of a lane and leave plenty of following distance. Riders can help improve visibility by using headlights, wearing reflective gear and signaling early.

If a motorcycle accident leaves you injured, our Louisiana motorcycle accident lawyers can help you understand your rights and next steps. Contact us today: https://spurgeonlaw.com/contact/

Louisiana heat can turn a parked vehicle dangerous very quickly. 🥵

Never leave a child or pet inside a vehicle, even for a short stop.
Create a back-seat reminder, keep parked vehicles locked and place keys where children cannot reach them. If you see a child alone in a hot vehicle, call 911 immediately.

Hot car safety starts with one habit: always check the back seat before you walk away.

That photo, check-in or casual comment may seem harmless, but social media can become part of your Louisiana personal injury case. Insurance companies and defense attorneys may review posts for anything they believe conflicts with an injury claim.

After an accident, think carefully before posting about your health, activities, location or the crash itself. Even content shared by friends and family could create questions.

After a car accident, an insurance adjuster may contact you and ask for a statement. Before agreeing, remember that the adjuster’s role is to evaluate the claim for the insurance company and your words may affect how the claim is handled.

Keep records of every conversation, do not guess about details and avoid signing anything you do not fully understand.

Our Louisiana personal injury attorneys can help you review your options before you make an important decision. In a Jam, Call Sam.
