01 (DE Revision) MOVE OVER OR REDUCE SPEED FOR STOPPED EMERGENCY AND MAINTENANCE VEHICLES (SR-1-18-DE) signs should be located at all major points of entry into the state to inform motorists of their responsibilities under §4134(b) of Title 21 of the Delaware Code, to take appropriate action when approaching stationary authorized emergency vehicles, including DelDOT vehicles.

02 (DE Revision) Major points of entry include Interstate, U.S. route, and State Route crossings of the state line.

Standard:

Guidance:

04 (DE Revision) When installed along multi-lane divided highways, SR 1-18-DE signs should be installed on both the right-hand and left-hand sides of the roadway when adequate space is available.

05 (DE Revision) Since SR1-18-DE signs do not pertain to a specific location, the signs, when used, should be located in open areas away from other signing to more easily attract the attention of motorists.
