When passing a stopped emergency vehicle on a Nevada highway, if you cannot safely change lanes, you must slow to:
5 mph below the posted limit.
Nevada requires a greater speed reduction.
20 mph below the posted speed limit.
Stop completely.
Stopping in a live lane is prohibited; slow passage is the rule.
Any speed — only the lane change is required.
A minimum speed reduction is required when lane change is impossible.
Nevada's Move Over Law requires drivers to change lanes away from stopped emergency, tow, or maintenance vehicles with flashing lights. If a lane change is unsafe, drivers must reduce speed to 20 mph below the posted limit (or 5 mph if the posted limit is 20 mph or less).
