But Does It Have Proper Tires For the Wiener Months?

One of the most recognizable vehicles was spotted in a traffic stop in Wisconsin a few days ago.
The operator wasn’t hotdogging-it, as many would when placed behind the wheel of such an icon.
The cop probably didn’t relish having to pull over the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile either; knowing it would become topic of conversation.  Good thing the Sheriff’s Department has a Facebook page that explains:

“When a motorist sees a vehicle on the side of the road with its emergency lights flashing (red, blue and amber), they are required to move out of the lane closest to the vehicle if possible. If a safe lane change is not possible, or the motorist is traveling on a two-lane roadway, they are required to slow their vehicle, maintain a safe speed for traffic conditions, and drive at a reduced speed until completely past the vehicle.

One of the most dangerous places for emergency responders and maintenance personnel is along the side of the road. Each year hundreds of these hard working men and women are injured or killed by passing motorists while working along the nation’s highways.”
