Father Killed Helping Strangers Stuck in Mud: Stop DIY Towing

Mom Raising Awareness Proper Towing Techniques 

ARTICLE

It's truly disheartening to read about accidents
that could have been prevented.

Here we have a good samaritan trying to assist
a car stuck in mud.  The towing hitch boomeranged
coming through the driver's windshield killing a father of 3.

When people insist on doing it yourself
towing, inevitably problems occur.

Unfortunately this story ended in fatal consequences.

Please folks, call a professional, don't do DIY
towing, why take the risk?

Lightening Strikes!

When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors!

Separating myth from facts:
Are you really safe in your car during a thunderstorm?

There is some truth to rubber tires grounding and
protecting you from lightening while in a vehicle.  
Your vehicle must have a hard top roof, windows closed
and keep away from all electrical devices that are plugged
into the car.

The danger of being in a vehicle when lightening strikes
include:  damage to the antenna,  electrical system, 
rear windshield and tires. 

Check with the NOAA before
heading on a road trip:

and remember:
When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors
