Tow Truck Driver Appeals

Across the country we're hearing the same thing over
and over again, people are not stopping for tow trucks.

If you see flashing yellow lights you're supposed to stop 
or MOVE OVER to the next lane.

Here's another story out of Michigan:

Gimme a break: Tow truck operators say drivers come too close

HURON COUNTY — Slow down.
The two words have been pounded into our heads since driver’s training.
But officials say signs, cones, barrels, lights, barriers, traffic controllers and other means sometimes aren’t enough for people to heed the warning and move over for emergency and tow vehicles, which is also inked in Michigan’s “Move Over Law.”

“Slow down, just give us room to work, that’s all we’re asking,” said Bill Simmons, who owns Oak Beach Auto Repair in Port Austin. Simmons called the Tribune this week, frustrated.
He said it was bright and sunny with good visibility when he arrived to tow a vehicle out of a ditch on Caseville Road on Thursday morning. The road was icy. Cones were out and his lights were on, he said. The winch cable between the tow truck and the car was in the road.

“We just had someone hit our cable,” Simmons said. “It scraped the roof of their car.”
He said the car never stopped. So he called police.

Restitution

When people refuse to follow laws - laws that are meant to protect,
than justice must take the reigns.

Such was the case with Steven Dolan who was convicted of
homicide by negligent operation of a vehicle.  

You see Steven Dolan struck and killed Nate Walsh, a tow truck driver who
was on the shoulder of the highway tending to a disabled vehicle.

The Judge sentenced Steven Dolan to five years probation, 
$11,309 in restitution costs and a staggered jail term.
Steven is to spend two weeks in jail on the anniversary
of the fatal crash for the next five years, this
will serve to remind him of the life he took.

Lady Gaga Scored


If only, if only the game had the same emotion as Gaga's rendition of 
our National Anthem.

Unfortunately I decided at half time to call it quits, it appeared to me
that there was much sloppiness going on and quite alot of
mean spirited activity. Did you see the Bronco's guy grab the
face helmet of the Panther's player.................what's that?

As we all know it was the Bronco's that pulled it out with
a score of 24 and the Panther's never moved from the 1st qtr
score of 10.  What was that move anyway...........climbing over all
the players for a touchdown?

and then we had the ads..........


ok, maybe it's just me...........but nothing left a lasting memory!

Oh well, the 50th Super Bowl has come and gone.

and here it is Monday morning and we're back on the job
bringing quality service to our customers.
