Flashing Green Light


Vehicle approaching with a flashing green light?

MOVE OVER!

Why?

Because it’s a Lyme Ambulance EMT using their personal vehicle to get to the scene of an emergency as fast as they safely can.

The vehicle may not have a siren like the ambulance, but its destination is the same and its mission just as important.

MOVE OUT OF THE WAY

A life may depend on it

GREEN LIGHT PERMIT

Emergency personnel are permitted by the State to display flashing lights on their personal vehicle when responding to the scene of an emergency. When you see one in your rear-view mirror, pull over and stop.  Green lights indicate ambulance personnel, and blue is used by firefighters. When you see a vehicle approaching you with one of these flashing lights, please pull over to the right as far as possible and STOP.
