The updated legislation extends safe passing protections for roadside workers to include snowplows and highway maintenance vehicles, in addition to emergency vehicles and tow trucks.
When such vehicles are stopped with their flashing lights operating, motorists are required to:
• Slow down to 60 km/h or the posted speed limit, whichever is lower, in all lanes travelling in the same direction on multi-lane highways; and
• Slow down to 60 km/h or the posted speed limit, whichever is lower, when travelling in either direction on single lane highways.

Currently only vehicles in the adjacent lane need to slow down.
Delayed. See post #22.
