Clock on Dash cam is wrong. Happened on May 10, 2016
Notice a Toronto Police officer driving on the East bound 401 between Highway 400 and Keele. Perhaps driving between two places as the 400 series highways are monitored and enforced by the Ontario Provincial Police.
He approaches a tow truck and does not make a lane change or slow down.
from http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/safety/emergency-vehicles.shtml
Approaching a stopped emergency vehicle
"Slow Down, Move Over": If you see an emergency vehicle or a tow truck with its amber lights flashing stopped facing the same direction you are going, slow down and pass with caution.
If the road has two or more lanes, you must leave a lane of space between you and the emergency vehicle, if you can do so safely.
Penalties
Drivers can be charged if they don't slow down, or move over when safe to do so, near emergency vehicles or tow trucks that are stopped with sirens or lights flashing.
