In the aftermath of the terrifying incident involving Robbinsville Township Patrolman Connor Boyle Saturday night on Route 130, Director of Public Safety Dave Fried and Police Chief Michael Polaski would like to remind the public of the
"Move Over Law" -New Jersey Statute 39:4-92.2 - which was enacted in 2009.
Every day, thousands of law enforcement officers and emergency personnel take to the streets to help keep the motoring public safe; putting their lives on the line to do so. One of the most dangerous aspects of a police officer's job is stepping out of their vehicle and ontot h e roadway. Whether it is to conduct a motor vehicle stop, assist a disabled motorist, investigate a crash, or remove debris from
the roadway, perils of all types are everywhere.
Statistics from 2011-2020 reveal that there have been 286 officer line-of-duty deaths due to vehicle crashes, and another 114 due to being struck by a vehicle.
These numbers are not only tragic, but they are often avoidable.
Research shows many drivers believe that moving over is simply an optional
courtesy when they see law enforcement vehicles, other emergency vehicles, tow trucks and other public assistance vehicles on the side of the road. Let's be clear: It is not optional. It is the law! We need to keep our first responders and vehicle
assistance workers safe.
Let's join together to protect those who protect you. The simple act of slowing down and moving over will prevent tragedies.
Slow down and move over. It's the law!
UPDATE SERIOUS MOTOR VEHICLE CRASH:
We are happy to report that Patrolman Connor Boyle was released from the hospital and sent home to begin the healing process. We want to thank Robbinsville Division of Fire and EMS, Capital Health Medic Unit, As well as the Nurses and Doctors at Capitol Health Regional Trauma Center for taking such great care of Patrolman Boyle.
We would like to also thank our Community, Our Elected Officials, local business owners, our colleagues in Law Enforcement, Fire and EMS for your outpouring of support, thoughts, prayers and words of encouragement. They mean the world to Patrolman Boyle and all of the Police Officers and Dispatchers of the Robbinsville Police Department.
