State of Kentucky Needs Something Similar to Illinois "Shibs Law"

Illinois and their Governor Rob Blagojevich just signed a new law affording additional protection to Emergency Responders while in the line of Duty.  The so called "Shibs Law" was names after a firefighter who was killed last July while responing to a call of a burning Semi Truck.  While trying to put out the fire he was struck by a Greyhound Bus and killed.

The new law allows firefighters and other such Emergency personel to close down a highway or interstate while responding to similar type calls.  Please read the article that I wrote dealing with this matter.  Leave me a comment and let me know if Kentucky could use a similar type law OR do we have to wait until tragedy strikes as was the case in Illinois.
