Cohoes Police spent Friday re-educating drivers about the state's move over law -- by ticketing drivers along 787 who failed to move over for emergency personnel along the roadside. 

T&T Towing partnered with the city for the crackdown. 

They pointed to statistics that show, nationwide, one tow driver a week is killed, and hope this program saves lives. 

"So many different people working on the side of the road. I want to them to get home safe and telling people time and time again doesn't work so this time we are issuing citations," said Cohoes Mayor Shawn Morse.

The city raising awareness ahead of a major 787 construction project set to begin on Monday.
