Please be very careful in the next few days as traveling will be difficult. It appears the storm system has turned and is now coming directly for us. Continue to watch local news feeds in the sheriff's department for more updates

The Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office is providing notice that the Onsolve CodeRED platform used for public alerting by our agency was the victim of a targeted cyber-attack in November. As a result, CodeRED alerts, including weather warnings, will no longer be available. This incident appears to have impacted numerous public safety agencies in Minnesota and across the United States.
Details from the vendor have been limited but we were told the affected personal information that may have been impacted was limited to names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, and/or associated passwords used to create user profiles for alerts. According to the vendor, “If users have the same password for any other accounts, those passwords should be changed immediately.”

The Sheriff’s Office remains committed to public safety and is in the process of evaluating alternative systems with the intent of going live early in January 2026. In the interim, we have enacted backup protocols for critical public alerting messages using the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System “IPAWS.” Less critical information will be relayed through social media and traditional communication with local media organizations.

Crash Responder Safety Week: Why It Matters and How It Started

Crash Responder Safety Week is more than a calendar event. It is a national reminder that the men and women who respond to roadway incidents deserve to go home safely at the end of every shift. Across the country, tow operators, firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMS personnel, safety service patrols, and roadway workers are struck and injured — or killed — far too often by drivers who simply refuse to slow down and move over.

Why This Week Exists

Every year, traffic incidents remain one of the most dangerous environments for responders. A single roadside crash exposes responders to fast-moving traffic, distracted drivers, limited visibility, and unpredictable scene conditions. Many responders work only inches from vehicles passing at highway speeds. The result is tragic: struck-by incidents continue to be one of the leading causes of line-of-duty deaths.

Crash Responder Safety Week was established to reverse that trend. It’s a coordinated effort led by transportation agencies, responder associations, and safety advocates to educate the public about the life-or-death importance of the Move Over laws already on the books in all 50 states. The goal is simple: increase driver awareness, protect responders, and reduce secondary crashes.

A Brief Background

Crash Responder Safety Week has its roots in the Traffic Incident Management (TIM) program, a nationwide initiative designed to improve how agencies respond to roadway crashes. As agencies recognized the high rate of responder fatalities, they pushed for a dedicated annual campaign to highlight the issue, unify safety messaging, and encourage partnerships across disciplines.

The week now serves as a platform for nationwide training, public outreach, and cross-agency coordination. It has grown into a recognized period where the entire traffic safety community joins together to reinforce one message: every responder’s life matters, and every driver has a responsibility to help protect them.

Why It’s So Important

For SDMO and every organization fighting for roadside safety, this week underscores what we already know too well:
• Responders are being struck because drivers are not paying attention.
• Move Over laws exist, yet compliance remains dangerously low.
• Secondary crashes cause additional injuries, delay emergency response, and increase risk for everyone at the scene.
• Tow operators and other responders are often the first ones in and the last ones out. Their exposure is constant and unavoidable.

Crash Responder Safety Week shines a light on these realities and pushes the public to change their behavior. The message is straightforward: slow down, move over, and give responders the space they need to work safely.

SDMO’s Position

Slow Down Move Over Inc. continues to remind the public that this issue is not just about awareness — it’s about accountability. Responders stand on the side of the road serving the very drivers who put them at risk. The least the motoring public can do is give them the courtesy and distance they need to stay alive.

Crash Responder Safety Week is a chance to amplify that message, honor the responders we’ve lost, support the ones still serving, and push for meaningful behavioral change on our roadways.
