CARROLLTON, Texas — The Carrollton Police Department wants to remind drivers to slow down and move over.

The department posted dash cam video on Facebook showing two of their officers attempting to safeguard drivers by removing a roadway obstruction on I-35E last month.

In the process, Officer Tillman and Officer Villegas are seen jumping over a barrier on the shoulder of I-35 to move out of the way from being hit by a car heading their direction.

The driver was not hurt and neither were the officers.

According to police, the driver was not drunk but was issued multiple citations.
