AI Summary
This bill appropriates funds from the general fund to the commissioner of public safety for fiscal year 2027 to launch a statewide public education campaign. The campaign's purpose is to inform the public about existing laws, specifically Minnesota Statutes, section 169.18, subdivisions 11 and 11a, which are commonly referred to as "Move Over" laws. These laws require drivers to slow down and, if possible, move over into an adjacent lane when passing certain vehicles that are stopped on the side of the road, typically emergency vehicles or tow trucks, to ensure the safety of those working on the roadside. This appropriation is a one-time allocation.
