Driving in Illinois and passing vehicles with flashing lights

[Bob Don]

Ohio and North Carolina also have the same law and Massachusetts is contemplating it. Mr. Fuller: I raced NHRA Stock in the 70's and 80's before becoming a police officer. I have 25 years on the job now. Let me show you the horrific aftermath of needless traffic accidents that change people's lives forever. We recently had a state trooper in the breakdown lane (lights flashing) with a disabled motorist. She was rear-ended by a drunk driver at over 100 mph. That trooper is now a confined to a wheel chair and is more or less incoherent - for the rest of her life! These are not victimless crimes. I fail to see the unreasonableness of slowing down and getting out of the way.
