An ACT Policing spokesperson reminded motorists to pay attention to the road and slow down near accidents.
“Motorists are reminded of the law introduced this year requiring them to slow down to 40 km/h when passing emergency service vehicles that are stopped with lights activated,” the spokesperson said.
“Additionally, drivers are reminded that distractions such as incidents and roadworks can increase the risk of a collision. Pay attention to the road ahead and concentrate on the important task of driving.”
