Requiring drivers to proceed with due caution when passing stationary vehicles displaying hazard warning lights.

SB 8 requires drivers in Kansas to proceed with caution when approaching stationary vehicles displaying hazard lights, road flares, cones, or warning signs. Drivers must either change lanes (if safe and possible on multi-lane highways) or reduce speed and maintain a safe speed if lane changes aren’t feasible. This applies to all drivers encountering stopped vehicles - such as road crews or emergency vehicles - on Kansas roads. The law amends existing traffic regulations to clarify these safety requirements and aligns with a $75 penalty for violations under K.S.A. 8-1520a.
